Our coach was absolutely out of his head. He must have read Bear Bryant's book. We had 78 players out. The first day 35 quit. Twenty quit the second day. We ended with 17 players. It was depressing.

We need to know where we are going and how we plan to get there. Our dreams and aspirations must be translated into real and tangible goals with priorities and time frames.

It took me a while to realize that basketball wasn't football.

The winning team has a dedication. It will have a core of veteran players who set the standards. They will not accept defeat.

You are the land. The land is you.

One of life's most painful moments comes when we must admit that we didn't do our homework, that we are not prepared.

You can take the best team and the worst team and line them up and you would find very little physical difference. You would find an emotional difference. The wining team has a dedication. It will have a core group of veteran players who set the standards. They will not accept defeat.
