More quotes by Bear Bryant
If they don't have a winning attitude, I don't want them.
Bear Bryant
When you play defense you have to storm the fort or play cover - you can't do both.
Bear Bryant
I'd like for people to remember me as a winner, because I ain't never been nothin but a winner.
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
There is no substitute for guts.
Bear Bryant
I always want my players to show class, knock'em down, pat on the back, and run back to the huddle.
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
People who are in it for their own good are individualists. They don't share the same heartbeat that makes a team so great. A great unit, whether it be football or any organization, shares the same heartbeat.
Bear Bryant
If you whoop and holler all the time, the players just get used to it.
Bear Bryant
There's a lot of blood, sweat, and guts between dreams and success.
Bear Bryant
Don't ever give up on ability. Don't give up on a player who has it.
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
I'll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we'll be champions.
Bear Bryant
It really doesn't cost anything to be nice, and the rewards can be unimaginable
Bear Bryant
There's no use fussing on a boy who doesn't have any ability.
Bear Bryant
Here's a twenty, bury two.
Bear Bryant
I'm no genius, but I'm a damn good football coach.
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
They say I teach brutal football, but the only thing brutal about football is losing.
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
