Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach.

I don't apologize for anything. When I make a mistake, I take the blame and go on from there. I just despise to lose, and that has taken a man of mediocre ability and made a pretty good coach out of him.

Any time you give a man something he doesn't earn, you cheapen him. Our kids earn what they get, and that includes respect.

Jack Tatum could hit a man so hard that it would lift both his feet off the ground.

It does not matter the size of the man, rather the amount of effort the man is willing to put forth
