“Do what you are supposed to and success will follow.”
“It’s what you learn after you know it all that counts.”
“Teach the game, then let them play. Don’t over control.”
“The purpose of discipline is to correct, not punish.”
“I lost my temper but I never lost control.”
“Pay more attention to lesser players in practice.”
“Today’s coaches are too concerned with winning, I never talked about winning. We played against our capabilities.”
“Don’t mistake activity for achievement.”
