Football Games Are Generally Won

Get The Winners Into The Game.

If You Want To Coach You Have Three Rules To Follow To Win. One, Surround Yourself With People Who Can't Live Without Football. I've Had A Lot Of Them. Two, Be Able To Recognize Winners. They Come In All Forms. And, Three, Have A Plan For Everything. A Plan For Practice, A Plan For The Game. A Plan For Being Ahead, And A Plan For Being Behind 20-0 At Half, With Your Quarterback Hurt And The Phones Dead, With It Raining Cats And Dogs And No Rain Gear Because The Equipment Man Left It At Home.

When I Was A Young Coach I Used To Say, "treat Everybody Alike." That's Bull. Treat Everybody Fairly.

The Old Lessons (work, Self-discipline, Sacrifice, Teamwork, Fighting To Achieve) Aren't Being Taught By Many People Other Than Football Coaches These Days. The Football Coach Has A Captive Audience And Can Teach These Lessons Because The Communication Lines Between Himself And His Players Are More Wide Open Than Between Kids And Parents. We Better Teach These Lessons Or Else The Country's Future Population Will Be Made Up Of A Majority Of Crooks, Drug Addicts, Or People On Relief.
