Writing was far more of an art in the sports world than it is now.

Everybody hears, but few listen.

I'm not sure sports writing is an art.

You don't play against opponents, you play against the game of basketball.

All of us learn to write in the second grade. Most of us go on to greater things.

I don't believe in luck, I believe in preparation.

If my primary purpose here at Indiana is to go out and win ballgames, I can probably do that as well as anybody can. I would just cheat, get some money from a lot of people around Indianapolis who want to run the operation that way, and just go out and get the best basketball players I can. Then we'd beat everybody.
