More quotes by Bear Bryant
I'm happy with the coach we have. I think any one of the ones I asked them to consider would've been good.
Bear Bryant
I can remember loving to recruit. I knew I was going to do my best. But traveling and recruiting doesn't appeal to me any more. It's not as much fun as it used to be.
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
You must learn how to hold a team together. You must lift some men up, calm others down, until finally they've got one heartbeat. Then you've got yourself a team.
Bear Bryant
Have a plan. Follow the plan, and you'll be surprised how successful you can be. Most people don't have a plan. That's why it's easy to beat most folks.
Bear Bryant
In a crisis, don't hide behind anything or anybody. They're going to find you anyway.
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
Never be too proud to get down on your knees and pray.
Bear Bryant
You have to learn what makes this or that Sammy run. For one it's a pat on the back, for another it's eating him out, for still another it's a fatherly talk, or something else. You're a fool if you think as I did as a young coach, that you can treat them all alike.
Bear Bryant
If it is worth playing, it is worth paying the price to win.
Bear Bryant
I'll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we'll be champions.
Bear Bryant
There's no use fussing on a boy who doesn't have any ability.
Bear Bryant
Don't talk too much or too soon.
Bear Bryant
It really doesn't cost anything to be nice, and the rewards can be unimaginable
Bear Bryant
In life, you'll have your back up against the wall many times. You might as well get used to it.
Bear Bryant
Get the winners into the game.
Bear Bryant
Football games are generally won by the boys with the greatest desire.
Bear Bryant
Don't ever give up on ability. Don't give up on a player who has it.
Bear Bryant
I didn't have a thing to do with picking a coach, and didn't want to. But I didn't think they'd pick one I didn't like.
Bear Bryant
I don't have any ideas my coaches have them. I just pass the ideas on and referee the arguments.
Bear Bryant
