More quotes by Bear Bryant
Back 12 years ago, when Dr. Mathews was president here, we had a plan that when I got ready to quit, we'd bring a certain guy in and he'd take over that day and I'd leave. But as time wore on, I realized that wouldn't have been good at all.
Bear Bryant
Don't ever give up on ability. Don't give up on a player who has it.
Bear Bryant
There is no sin in not liking to play it's a mistake for a boy to be there if he doesn't want to.
Bear Bryant
If a man is a quitter, I'd rather find out in practice than in a game. I ask for all a player has so I'll know later what I can expect.
Bear Bryant
First there are those who are winners, and know they are winners. Then there are the losers who know they are losers. Then there are those who are not winners, but don't know it. They're the ones for me. They never quit trying. They're the soul of our game.
Bear Bryant
You have to be willing to out-condition your opponents.
Bear Bryant
I'm no genius, but I'm a damn good football coach.
Bear Bryant
When you win, there's glory enough for everybody. When you lose, there's glory for none.
Bear Bryant
There ought to be a special place in heaven for coaches' wives.
Bear Bryant
Georgia Tech beat us and Mississippi Southern tied us last year, and Texas beat us after we had the game won. We only played about five games the way we were capable of playing and lost one of those.
Bear Bryant
Being inside Tiger Stadium is like being on the inside of a drum.
Bear Bryant
Don't talk too much. Don't pop off. Don't talk after the game until you cool off.
Bear Bryant
Get the winners into the game.
Bear Bryant
I'm not much of a golfer, I don't have any friends and all I like to do is go home and be alone, and not worry about ways not to lose.
Bear Bryant
Sacrifice. Work. Self-discipline. I teach these things, and my boys don't forget them when they leave.
Bear Bryant
But it's still a coach's game. Make no mistake. You start at the top. If you don't have a good one at the top, you don't have a cut dog's chance.
Bear Bryant
If there is one thing that has helped me as a coach, it's my ability to recognize winners, or good people who can become winners by paying the price.
Bear Bryant
There's a lot of blood, sweat, and guts between dreams and success.
Bear Bryant
No coach has ever won a game by what he knows it's what his players know that counts.
Bear Bryant
The faint old man shall lean his silver head To feel thee thou shalt kiss the child asleep, And dry the moistened curls that overspread His temples, while his breathing grows more deep.
Bear Bryant
