There are little details in everything you do, and if you get away from any one of the little details, you're not teaching the thing as a whole. For it is little things which, together, make the whole. This, I think, is extremely important.

Too many people look on outscoring someone as winning, I never tried to get that across to my players.

I talked to the players and tried to make them aware of what was good and bad, but I didn't try to run their lives.

I like to spend time in the past, with the things that have been important to me.

A coach's primary function should be not to make better players, but to make better people

A mentor must always guide, never push. It was my job to listen to them, offer my perspective, and encourage them to pursue the ideals they believed to be true.

The person who is afraid to risk failure seldom has to face success. I expected my players to make mistakes, as long as they were mistakes of commission. A mistake of commission happens when you are doing what should be done but don't get the results you want.
