But it's still a coach's game. Make no mistake. You start at the top. If you don't have a good one at the top, you don't have a cut dog's chance.

Lee Roy was the best college linebacker - bar none. He would have made every tackle on every play if they had stayed in bounds.

The first time you quit, it's hard. The second time, it gets easier. The third time, you don't even have to think about it.

You take those little rascals, talk to them good, pat them on the back, let them think they are good, and they will go out and beat the biguns.

Find your own picture, your own self in anything that goes bad. It's awfully easy to mouth off at your staff or chew out players, but if it's bad, and your the head coach, you're responsible. If we have an intercepted pass, I threw it. I'm the head coach. If we get a punt blocked, I caused it. A bad practice, a bad game, it's up to the head coach to assume his responsibility.

Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning takes care of itself.

Recognize winners. They come in all forms.
