More quotes by Bear Bryant
Don't talk too much. Don't pop off. Don't talk after the game until you cool off.
Bear Bryant
It really doesn't cost anything to be nice, and the rewards can be unimaginable
Bear Bryant
If they don't have a winning attitude, I don't want them.
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
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
When you make a mistake, there are only three things you should ever do about it: 1. Admit it. 2. Learn from it, and 3. Don't repeat it.
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
I have had players who are good, and who know they are good I have had players who are bad and know they are bad I have had players who are good, but who don't know they are good I have had players who are bad, but who don't know they are bad. It is this last group that has won more games for me than the first three groups combined.
Bear Bryant
Don't ever give up on ability. Don't give up on a player who has it.
Bear Bryant
If wanting to win is a fault, as some of my critics seem to insist, then I plead guilty. I like to win. I know no other way. It's in my blood.
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 ain't won but one. My team won the rest in spite of me.
Bear Bryant
Everybody's got pretty good players now, more players than there've ever been. If you play poorly, you're going to get beat.
Bear Bryant
Be aware of yes men. Generally, they are losers. Surround yourself with winners. Never forget - people win.
Bear Bryant
There's no use fussing on a boy who doesn't have any ability.
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
Here's a twenty, bury two.
Bear Bryant
You win games with your strengths, not your weaknesses.
Bear Bryant
You're still going to win with preparation and dedication and plain old desire. If you don't have genuine desire, you won't be dedicated enough to prepare properly.
