A competitor continually sets new goals. He feels the need to keep raising the bar. If the fist goal is to make the team, and he achieves it, he immediately resets the goal to: I want to be a starter.

Teamwork is really a form of trust. It's what happens when you surrender the mistaken idea that you can go it alone and realize that you won't achieve your individual goals without the support of your colleagues.

I am about helping each and every student athlete that selects to wear the orange, you know, be successful at Tennessee individually and as a team. That type of record is certainly not anything that I have aspirations to reach.

You can't pick and choose the days that you feel like being responsible. It's not something that disappears when you're tired.

Sometimes you learn more from losing than winning. Losing forces you to reexamine.

I have a love-hate relationship with losing. I hate how it makes me feel, which is basically sick. But I love what it brings out.

If it doesn't bother you, it won't bother them.
