Coach
"All I can say is that I'm going to try to coach the way I've coached in the past. And if it ends up not being good enough, then so be it."
Being
"But at some point, we've got to have disciplined play and have got to coach better. I'm not putting it on the players. We've got to coach them to tackle and block better. It's as simple as that. If we can do those things, we'll have a chance."
Chance
"I really believe everything is here for us to be very successful."
Success
"I do have some young coaches, but I don't really believe that is the biggest problem we have here."

Sports
"So, I didn't say we are going to win a lot, but we are going to play like winners, and we've got a plan in place to teach our guys how to play like winners and play like a champion."
Sports

Fun
