I Ain't Won But One. My Team

If You Don't Learn Anything But Self Discipline, Then Athletics Is Worthwhile.

You Have To Learn What Makes This Or That Sammy Run. For One It's A Pat On The Back, For Another It's Eating Him Out, For Still Another It's A Fatherly Talk, Or Something Else. You're A Fool If You Think As I Did As A Young Coach, That You Can Treat Them All Alike.

There's No Substitute For Guts.

What Are You Doing Here? Tell Me Why You Are Here. If You Are Not Here To Win A National Championship, You're In The Wrong Place. You Boys Are Special. I Don't Want My Players To Be Like Other Students. I Want Special People. You Can Learn A Lot On The Football Field That Isn't Taught In The Home, The Church, Or The Classroom. There Are Going To Be Days When You Think You've Got No More To Give And Then You're Going To Give Plenty More. You Are Going To Have Pride And Class. You Are Going To Be Very Special. You Are Going To Win The National Championship For Alabama.

No Coach Has Ever Won A Game By What He Knows; It's What His Players Know That Counts.
