I continually stress to my players that all I expect from them at practice and in the games is their maximum effort.

We will begin by learning how to tie our shoes.

There is no more powerful leadership tool than your own personal example.

Rest when you need to, but never quit.

As a leader, you must be filled with energy and eagerness, joy and love for what you do. If you lack enthusiasm for your job, you cannot perform to the best of your ability. Industriousness is unattainable without Enthusiasm.

Remember this, the choices you make in life, make you.

Make no mistake, I always want to win, but I never fight with an opponent. My fight is within me it is the struggle to be the best I can be at whatever I do.
