More quotes by Bear Bryant
When you win, there's glory enough for everybody. When you lose, there's glory for none.
Bear Bryant
I'm no genius, but I'm a damn good football coach.
Bear Bryant
Baton Rouge happens to be the worst place in the world for a visiting team. It's like being inside a drum.
Bear Bryant
You have to be willing to out-condition your opponents.
Bear Bryant
Three rules for coaching: 1.) Surround yourself with people who can't live without football. 2.) Recognize winners. They come in all forms. 3.) Have a plan for everything.
Bear Bryant
If they don't have a winning attitude, I don't want them.
Bear Bryant
We can't have two standards, one set for the dedicated young men who want to do something ambitious and one set for those who don't.
Bear Bryant

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
I make my practices real hard because if a player is a quitter, I want him to quit in practice, not in a game.
Bear Bryant
I ain't never had much fun. I ain't never been two inches away from a football. Here guys go fishing on the day of the game, hunting, golfing, and all I want to do is be alone, studying how not to lose.
Bear Bryant
Nearly every coach I've talked with tells me that the attention you get from media and other people is the thing you miss most. I don't know if that's right.
Bear Bryant
If you whoop and holler all the time, the players just get used to it.
Bear Bryant
Scout yourself. Have a buddy who coaches scout you.
Bear Bryant
But there's one thing about quitters you have to guard against - they are contagious. If one boy goes, the chances are he'll take somebody with him, and you don't want that. So when they would start acting that way, I used to pack them up and get them out, or embarrass them, or do something to turn them around.
Bear Bryant
If you don't learn anything but self discipline, then athletics is worthwhile.
Bear Bryant
If you are going to be a successful duck hunter, you must go where the ducks are.
Bear Bryant
There's no substitute for guts.
Bear Bryant
In order to have a winner, the team must have a feeling of unity every player must put the team first ahead of personal glory.
Bear Bryant
I don't have any ideas my coaches have them. I just pass the ideas on and referee the arguments.
