When I went to high school, an all-boys' school, a Catholic school, I tried out for football, and I didn't make it. It was the first time, athletically, that I was knocked down.

With accomplishments comes confidence and with confidence comes belief. It has to be in that order.

You don't just be a team. You become a team. Through tough games you find that you need each other

In high school, in sport, I had a coach who told me I was much better than I thought I was, and would make me do more in a positive sense. He was the first person who taught me not to be afraid of failure.

Actually, the Kentucky moment was better than winning the two National Championships, because it was the epitome of what I try to get from a team in a crisis situation.

Leaders show respect for people by giving them time.

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