Starting out as a junior varsity coach in high school you pick up things along the way and put them all together. Something has gotta come out of it. It's basically stuff I picked up from other people.

If you yell at a kid and he gets mad at you, you've lost him. If you yell at a kid and he gets mad at himself, then you have something.

I believe the objective of coaching is winning with integrity.

Coaches win practices, players win games

A player's ability to rebound is inversely proportional to the distance between where he was born and the nearest railroad tracks. The greater distance you live from the poor side of the railroad tracks, the less likely that you will be a good rebounder.

Winning takes character and intelligence. It is the most important thing you can do because it's a reaffirmation of your character.

I don't recruit players who are nasty to their parents. I look for players who realize the world doesn't revolve around them.
