Lee Roy Was The Best

It's Nice To Have The Opportunity To Play For So Much Money, But It's Nicer To Win It.

The Biggest Mistake Coaches Make Is Taking Borderline Cases And Trying To Save Them. I'm Not Talking About Grades Now, I'm Talking About Character. I Want To Know Before A Boy Enrolls About His Home Life, And What His Parents Want Him To Be.

Every Time A Player Goes Out There, At Least 20 People Have Some Amount Of Influence On Him. His Mother Has More Influence Than Anyone. I Know Because I Played, And I Loved My Mama.

I Have Always Tried To Teach My Players To Be Fighters. When I Say That, I Don't Mean Put Up Your Dukes And Get In A Fistfight Over Something. I'm Talking About Facing Adversity In Your Life. There Is Not A Person Alive Who Isn't Going To Have Some Awfully Bad Days In Their Lives. I Tell My Players That What I Mean By Fighting Is When Your House Burns Down, And Your Wife Runs Off With The Drummer, And You've Lost Your Job And All The Odds Are Against You. What Are You Going To Do? Most People Just Lay Down And Quit. Well, I Want My People To Fight Back.

You Try To Make Your Team Do Something They're Not Capable Of And You Get Murdered.
