“Force your opponent into low percentage shots.”

I believe that good defense embodies seven cardinal principle

Point the ball on all long shots.

But I’d rather be the most-hated winning coach in the country than the most-popular losing one.

There are no secrets in the game.

No easy baskets.

I know I have plenty of enemies.

If they don’t let me coach, they might as well take me to the Lexington cemetery.

If a Coach is determined to stay in the coaching profession.

He who controlleth the backboard, controlleth the game.

Success is the best builder of character.

Control everything within 18 feet.

A sound system of play, and the ability to instill in the boys a desire to win.

Reduce the number of your opponent’s shots;

This much is true, no coach has a monopoly on the knowledge of basketball.

We’re never as good as we think we are, nor as bad as we think we are.

Your defense will save you on the nights that your offense isn’t working.

Pray that your loneliness may spur you into finding something to live for, great enough to die for.

Well, if you ask any filmmaker how they got into it, everyone came a different route.

It is faith which turns distress into singing.

I just figured out that if I gave my all into this game – if I put everything into the fight business – then I would eventually run the fight business.

Look up into His lovely face and as you behold Him,

He will transform you into His likeness. You do the beholding.

I think people deny themselves by putting themselves into categories.

You don’t put your life into your books, you find it there.
