I'm trying to keep my own house from burning down. I can't worry about someone else's house.

Winning coaches look for opportunities to praise. Anything that reflects a commitment to the team is praiseworthy

If the players don't trust the coach, it is a problem, and vice versa.

I'm glad we were able to win this last one. I saw some good things tonight, ... It's just preseason, but we ran the ball good. I'm happy about that, and the first-team offense was pretty sharp.

I've been around enough to know what it takes to get a team to reach its potential, and I want players who want to reach their potential.

I talked to the team a lot about staying power. You never find out if you have that until you've been beaten down a few times.

I can't live my life worrying about something that might never happen.
