Bear Bryant
If you whoop and holler all the time, the players just get used to it.
Bear Bryant

Bear Bryant
There's no use fussing on a boy who doesn't have any ability.
Bear Bryant
In a crisis, don't hide behind anything or anybody. They're going to find you anyway.
Bear Bryant
When you play defense you have to storm the fort or play cover - you can't do both.
Bear Bryant
