More quotes by Bear Bryant
If they don't have a winning attitude, I don't want them.
Bear Bryant
There is a big difference in wanting to and willing to.
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
I'm known as a recruiter. Well you've got to have chicken to make chicken salad.
Bear Bryant
If you don't learn anything but self discipline, then athletics is worthwhile.
Bear Bryant
Here's a twenty, bury two.
Bear Bryant
I'll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we'll be champions.
Bear Bryant
I'm no genius, but I'm a damn good football coach.
Bear Bryant
Be aware of yes men. Generally, they are losers. Surround yourself with winners. Never forget - people win.
Bear Bryant
There ought to be a special place in heaven for coaches' wives.
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
Set goals - high goals for you and your organization. When your organization has a goal to shoot for, you create teamwork, people working for a common good.
Bear Bryant
Sacrifice. Work. Self-discipline. I teach these things, and my boys don't forget them when they leave.
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
They say I teach brutal football, but the only thing brutal about football is losing.
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.
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
There's a lot of blood, sweat, and guts between dreams and success.
Bear Bryant
There's no substitute for guts.
Bear Bryant
Don't ever give up on ability. Don't give up on a player who has it.
Bear Bryant
