Nearly every coach I've talked with tells me that the attention you get from media and other people is the thing you miss most. I don't know if that's right.
Bear Bryant
There's no substitute for guts.
Bear Bryant
When you win, there's glory enough for everybody. When you lose, there's glory for none.
