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

A team divided against itself can break down at any moment. The least bit of pressure or adversity will crack it apart

My job is to call attention to the things that I think are the difference between winning and losing. If I can't do that then I have failed as a coach.

I don't look at a problem and put variables in there that don't affect it.

It's better to decide wrongly than weakly. If you're weak, you're likely to be wrong anyway.

You are what your record says you are.

My expectations are greater than the average fan's but, I'm more realistic than the top prognosticators.
