I've had many a player tell me all through high school and right up until signing day that they were coming to Alabama, then they signed with somebody else.

Little things make the difference. Everyone is well prepared in the big things, but only the winners perfect the little things.

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

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

If wanting to win is a fault, as some of my critics seem to insist, then I plead guilty. I like to win. I know no other way. It's in my blood.

Most coaches study the films when they lose. I study them when we win -to see if I can figure out what I did right

If you believe in yourself and have dedication and pride - and never quit, you'll be a winner. The price of victory is high but so are the rewards.
