More quotes by Bear Bryant
If you don't learn anything but self discipline, then athletics is worthwhile.
Bear Bryant
Scout yourself. Have a buddy who coaches scout you.
Bear Bryant
Here's a twenty, bury two.
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
But it's still a coach's game. Make no mistake. You start at the top. If you don't have a good one at the top, you don't have a cut dog's chance.
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
There is no substitute for guts.
Bear Bryant
There's no use fussing on a boy who doesn't have any ability.
Bear Bryant
You have to be willing to out-condition your opponents.
Bear Bryant
I'll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we'll be champions.
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
Don't ever give up on ability. Don't give up on a player who has it.
Bear Bryant
Don't talk too much or too soon.
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
You try to make your team do something they're not capable of and you get murdered.
Bear Bryant
Mama wanted me to be a preacher. I told her coachin' and preachin' were a lot alike.
Bear Bryant
Don't talk too much. Don't pop off. Don't talk after the game until you cool off.
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
There's no substitute for guts.
Bear Bryant
I'd like for people to remember me as a winner, because I ain't never been nothin but a winner.
