I don't care how much talent a team has - if the boys don't think tough, practice tough, and live tough, how they play tough on Saturday.

I plan on staying at Alabama for the rest of my career. I guarantee that I'll be here for you through it all, regardless of what happens.

I didn't care if we ever quit practicing. I loved it. The only other guy I ever knew who loved it as much was Jerry Duncan. He would beg to practice even when he was hurt. I've actually seen him cry because the trainer told him he couldn't scrimmage.

No coach has ever won a game by what he knows; it's what his players know that counts.

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

I think I'm telling the truth. I sat by Ray Perkins at the Hall of Fame dinner in New York, and at that time he didn't know he was our coach and I didn't either.

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