“Greatness is a lot of small things done well, stacked up on each other.”

I wasn’t the biggest, the fastest, the strongest, and then I bought into something called work ethic.

You take five fingers. Individually, I can pin any one of them, but if I pin them together (makes a fist), it’s damn near impossible to turn this around.

I don’t know a man on this Earth who can outwork me.

I prepare so no one can take what is mine, no one can replace my mind, my heart.

Everything I got, I’m willing to sacrifice.

I’ve got kids that are always watching and I taught them to always finish something you started.

The only thing that could pull me away, was hard work.

I figured something out. And it is no secret what I figured out. Whatever the majority of people were doing, I found myself doing the opposite. I wanted to chase something great.

If tomorrow wasn’t promised, what would you give for today?

You don’t have to win it, just don’t lose it.

You have to be honest about who you are.

Some of these kids are spending more time with the coaches than they are with their parents. The coach is supposed to be raising these kids, not belittling them and talking to them like the world is coming to an end.

One of the things I’ve always said is that if you’re given the ability to coach kids, then you’re really given the ability to be a father or parent of some sort.

I like to see honesty out of people. People who are trustworthy. I like to see people who are involved with The Lord.

I have so much respect for people that are my elders. You aren’t going to hear me cursing around people that are 60 and 70 years old.

The only thing that follows work is results.
