“The way you motivate a football team is to eliminate the unmotivated ones.”

“You've got to have great athletes to win, I don't care who the coach is. You can't win without good athletes but you can lose with them. This is where coaching makes the difference.”

“It's not my job to motivate players. They bring extraordinary motivation to our program. It's my job not to de-motivate them.”

“If you want to get a deal, negotiate with the teams yourself. Say, "I want this much, and no less, but I'll show up to camp on time." It doesn't seem that hard to me.”

“Motivation is simple. You eliminate those who are not motivated.”

“Dream in light years, challenge miles, walk step by step”

“We aim above the mark to hit the mark.”

“Few people have any next, they live from hand to mouth without a plan, and are always at the end of their line.”
