Don't overwork your squad. If you're going to make a mistake, under-work them.

I can reach a kid who doesn't have any ability as long as he doesn't know it.

Everybody's got pretty good players now, more players than there've ever been. If you play poorly, you're going to get beat.

Never quit. It is the easiest cop-out in the world. Set a goal and don't quit until you attain it. When you do attain it, set another goal, and don't quit until you reach it. Never quit.

It's not the will to win that matters-everyone has that. It's the will to prepare to win that matters.

Winning isn't imperative, but getting tougher in the fourth quarter is.

If you don't have discipline, you can't have a successful program.
