The thing that concerns me the most is when I hear that people are making a lot of money a lot of ways except for the athletes, whether it's on the bowl games, the TV contracts, the conferences, the schools, the coaches, however you want to say it.

I’m not going to be the Alabama coach.

There is no continuum for success. Focus on the progress, not the results.

I don't control what people put on dot-com or anything else. So I'm just telling you there's no significance, in my opinion, about this, about me, about any interest that I have in anything other than being the coach here.

If you don't get result-oriented with the kids, you can focus on the things in the process that are important to them being successful.

Eliminate the clutter and all the things that are going on outside and focus on the things that you can control with how you sort of go about and take care of your business. That's something that's ongoing, and it can never change.

Your character is your accumulation of your thoughts, habits and priorities on a day-to-day basis.
