Volleyball is like going to church ... many attend, but few understand.

There is no such thing as 'staying in shape;' you either work to get better, or you allow yourself to get worse.

Make your mistakes with confidence. It is the only way you are going to learn anything. Never be afraid to do a skill, no matter how simple or hard it may seem someone has done it, and so can you, With enough committed practice and confidence.

Alter strategies and tactics, but never your principles.

Never underestimate your players; they can do it with enough game-like practice. Coaches must put more emphasis in practice and in life on making student-athletes aware of what they could or can do, rather than what they couldn't or presently can't do. The focus must be on solutions, not problems; what is wanted, not what is feared.

Too many players are so afraid to do anything that they seldom venture to do anything.

The kind of player who has turned his game around, he used to be lousy and lazy and now he is lazy and lousy.
