Coaches who can outline plays on a black board are a dime a dozen. The ones who win get inside their player and motivate.

Relentlessly pursue perfection knowing we won't catch it, but in the process we'll achieve excellence.

You never win a game unless you beat the guy in front of you. The score on the board doesn't mean a thing. That's for the fans. You've got to win the war with the man in front of you. You've got to get your man.

Build for your team a feeling of oneness, of dependence on one another and of strength to be derived by unity.

There is only one kind of discipline, and that is the perfect discipline. As a leader, you must enforce and maintain that discipline; otherwise, you will fail at your job.

Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.

Football is like life - it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority.
