If you are going to be a successful duck hunter, you must go where the ducks are.
One man doesn't make a team. It takes eleven.
Don't ever give up on ability. Don't give up on a player who has it.
The price of victory is high, but so are the rewards.
You must learn how to hold a team together. You must lift some men up, calm others down, until finally they've got one heartbeat. Then you've got yourself a team.
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.
