One reason I won’t compromise is because I believe honesty helps you win over the long haul. You can win a game tomorrow and lose a team. You can lose a game tomorrow and win a football team.
Don’t ever promise more than you can deliver, but always deliver more than you promise.
Without self-discipline, success is impossible, period.
You were not born a winner, and you were not born a loser. You are what you make yourself be.
If you make a fist and hold it for two hours, you won’t be able to pick up a glass because you’ll be so weak. Let’s stay loose. Let’s have fun.
When I work a game as an analyst, all I do is look at the game like a coach.
Remember this. Bear Bryant retired at age 69, and he died 28 days after he stopped coaching. If you don’t have something, and a purpose in your life, you’re gonna die.
If he’s got golf clubs in his truck or a camper in his driveway, I don’t hire him.
Absolutely. There are a 1000 better coaches in the cities, but I’m the best in the country.
When people need love and understanding and support the most is when they deserve it the least.
In golf, the player, coach and official are rolled into one, and they overlap completely. Golf really is the best microcosm of life – or at least the way life should be.
I give opinions, not advice.
I don’t think we can win every game. Just the next one.
Broadcasting is easy; you just talk until you think of something to say.
No, but you can see it from here.
Attitude determines how well you do it.
Give your players something they can physically do – don’t ask them to do something they can’t do.
Whenever you give up something, you must replace it with something.
I do think coaches need to get away from the game more, though. It’s good for them.
All an agent is going to do is buy things for a player, damage his eligibility, and make the player dependent on them.
I’d say handling people is the most important thing you can do as a coach. I’ve found every time I’ve gotten into trouble with a player, it’s because I wasn’t talking to him enough.
