A leader has to show the face his team needs to see.

It's always an honor to be ranked high, but whatever is said about you, you take it and then take a realistic look at yourself and who you are.

A basketball team is like the five fingers on your hand. If you can get them all together, you have a fist. That's how I want you to play.

Every season is a journey. Every journey is a lifetime.

That's what I do now: I lead and I teach. If we win basketball games from doing that, then that's great, but I lead and teach. Those are the two things I concentrate on.

You can see and you can listen, but you have to have moments in which you feel.

My ambition in high school was to be a high school coach and teacher, and that's still what I do: teach.
