Something has to happen that you can't coach.

I suppose I'm like most coaches now, standing on the sideline hoping somebody asks them a question.

I learned a long time ago that you don't have to go around using bad language and trying to hurt people to show how macho you are. That stuff won't get you anywhere, it just shows lack of vocabulary and character.

To have the kind of year you want to have, something has to happen that you can't explain why it happened. Something has to happen that you can't coach.

Sportsmanship to me is going out and playing as hard as you can within the rules.

He died right after he retired, and seeing that made me feel more conscious of a man needing a motive to live. If I ever got out of coaching, I would have to get a job somewhere, or I'm afraid I'd wilt on the vine, too.

Somehow, I went from being too young, to being too old. Somewhere in there I must have been just right.
