It's been years since I've had a real input in the game anyway. For this game, I've just tried to keep all the other stuff away from the players and coaches.

It's kind of hard to rally around a math class.

One man doesn't make a team. It takes eleven.

Losing doesn't make me want to quit. It makes me want to fight that much harder.

When you win, there's glory enough for everybody. When you lose, there's glory for none.

I want to make sure I don't interfere with the success of that team next year. I don't see any way I could go to practice like most of 'em do, and not hurt the team. I'd go nuts if I tried doing that.

If there is one thing that has helped me as a coach, it's my ability to recognize winners, or good people who can become winners by paying the price.
