If universities want to save a little money, they ought to make some cutbacks in administration and in faculty people who teach one class a week.

Why talk now when so many things have been said without ever giving me a chance to talk?

We talk in coaching about "winners" - kids, and I've had a lot of them, who just will not allow themselves or their team to lose. Coaches call that a will to win. I don't. I think that puts the emphasis in the wrong place. Everybody has a will to win. What's far more important is having the will to prepare to win.

I also believe that when something negative comes out about you in the media, that's only one person's opinion. These guys sometimes believe they've been ordained from on high to give the general opinion of the populace, and that just isn't the case.

There are as many guys in coaching who do a lousy job as there are in the media. Those are two professions that are a lot alike. There aren't a hell of a lot of really good coaches or writers.

When my time on earth is done and my activities here are past, I want them to bury me upside down, so my critics can kiss my ass.

What is the best thing you can do in a close game? Drive to the basket and put pressure on the defense! Not jack up jump shots
