The only people who aren't going to be criticized are those who do absolutely nothing

I look at athletes in all sports and try to picture what kind of football player they'd be, what position they'd play and so on.

I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it's not always in the way you expect. God knows what's best for us, though, so there's no need to worry when things don't go how we originally wanted them to go.

My first assistant-coaching job in football was at William & Mary in 1961. The pay wasn't much, so to get $300 more per year, I agreed to coach the golf team. I didn't even know how to keep score, and really, my main job was not to wreck the van on the way to tournaments.

I've never known anybody to achieve anything without overcoming adversity.

Ya know, Hitler was a great leader, too.

It's not my job to motivate players. They bring extraordinary motivation to our program. It's my job not to de-motivate them.
