More quotes by Bear Bryant
I left Texas A&M because my school called me. Mama called, and when Mama calls, then you just have to come running.
Bear Bryant

Bear Bryant

Bear Bryant
You try to make your team do something they're not capable of and you get murdered.
Bear Bryant

Bear Bryant
I'm not much of a golfer, I don't have any friends and all I like to do is go home and be alone, and not worry about ways not to lose.
Bear Bryant
In a crisis, don't hide behind anything or anybody. They're going to find you anyway.
Bear Bryant
Football games are generally won by the boys with the greatest desire.
Bear Bryant
When you play defense you have to storm the fort or play cover - you can't do both.
Bear Bryant
I don't have any ideas my coaches have them. I just pass the ideas on and referee the arguments.
Bear Bryant
If they don't have a winning attitude, I don't want them.
Bear Bryant
