Embrace the hell out of personal responsibility.

I had a really bad temper, when I was growing up. Sport helped me channel that temper into more positive acts.

Throughout the season, I look into my players eyes to gauge feelings, confidence levels, and to establish instant trust.

You cannot merely expect culture to be a natural occurrence; it has to be taught and made a part of your everyday routine.

Therefore, as a player, as a coach, even though we might have lost in a season or not won a championship, it was like a self-fulfilling prophecy that I'm going to win some time. I've never felt myself a loser.

A leader is someone who puts their people in position to be successful all the time

Always get back to your core principles.
