You can't win unless you have good people with great attitude. They are the ones who won the games. I didn't win any games. You never saw a coach make a tackle anywhere. My philosophy was to get the best players and then try to do something new with them.

My philosophy? Simplicity plus variety.

When I have the urge to get back to coaching, I lie down and wait until it passes.

The honor I feel today being inducted into the Hall of Fame is beyond what words can describe. My thanks to the Hall of Fame committee, who saw fit to bestow this great honor upon me today.

Originally, I thought the story of the Alamo was all these men defending their liberty when they could have left, knowing they were going to die.
