More quotes by 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
If you don't have discipline, you can't have a successful program.
Bear Bryant
When I was a young coach I used to say, Treat everybody alike. That's bull. Treat everybody fairly.
Bear Bryant
I ain't won but one. My team won the rest in spite of me.
Bear Bryant
I ain't never been nothin but a winner.
Bear Bryant
There's a lot of blood, sweat, and guts between dreams and success.
Bear Bryant
Lee Roy was the best college linebacker - bar none. He would have made every tackle on every play if they had stayed in bounds.
Bear Bryant
You have to be willing to out-condition your opponents.
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
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
You take those little rascals, talk to them good, pat them on the back, let them think they are good, and they will go out and beat the biguns.
Bear Bryant
There is a big difference in wanting to and willing to.
Bear Bryant
Here's a twenty, bury two.
Bear Bryant
My approach to the game has been the same at all the places I've been. Vanilla. The sure way. That means, first of all, to win physically. If you got eleven on a field, and they beat the other eleven physically, they'll win. They will start forcing mistakes. They'll win in the fourth quarter.
Bear Bryant
I know what it takes to win. If I can sell them on what it takes to win, then we are not going to lose too many football games.
Bear Bryant
If it is worth playing, it is worth paying the price to win.
Bear Bryant
I'm no innovator. If anything I'm a stealer, or borrower. I've stolen or borrowed from more people than you can shake a stick at.
Bear Bryant
No coach has ever won a game by what he knows it's what his players know that counts.
Bear Bryant
Don't talk too much or too soon.
Bear Bryant
I think the most important thing of all for any team is a winning attitude. The coaches must have it. The players must have it. The student body must have it. If you have dedicated players who believe in themselves, you don't need a lot of talent.
Bear Bryant
