If I miss coaching that much, I could go to some little school where they didn't recruit, where all the kids wanted to go. I believe I could find somewhere to coach.

Motivating people- the ingredient that separates winners from losers.

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

I told them my system was based on the "ant plan," that I'd gotten the idea watching a colony of ants in Africa during the war. A whole bunch of ants working toward a common goal.

I make my practices real hard because if a player is a quitter, I want him to quit in practice, not in a game.

I don't hire anybody not brighter than I am. If they're not brighter than I am, I don't need them.

In order to have a winner, the team must have a feeling of unity; every player must put the team first ahead of personal glory.
