A few from John McKay:

We didn't tackle well today. But we made up for it by not blocking.

Intensity is a lot of guys that run fast.

Emotion is highly overrated in football. My wife Corky is emotional as hell but can't play football worth a damn.

On OJ Simpson carrying the ball 47 times in a game: The balls not that heavy and he ain't in a union.

When asked about his teams execution: I'm in favor of it.

If this were a hoops thread, Abe Lemons would probably have the winning ones.

Not our coach but loved this one from Lou Holtz about this time of year I believe when Rick Mirer was going to start his first game for ND (you ND guys can correct me if I'm wrong) When asked about their offense heading into the season:

"Oh our offense is gonna move the ball... I just hope it's forward"

Couple of my favorites:

Bear Bryant - "When you get in the end zone, act like you've been there before"

Nick Saban - "There are two pains in life, the pain of discipline and the pain of disappointment. If you can handle the pain of discipline, then you'll never have to deal with the pain of disappointment."

Gene Stallings - "You don't have to flaunt your success, but you don't have to apologize for it either."

Yep. I have read that they were very close friends and that they and their wives used to vacation together in the off-season. I also read that the idea for the historic 1970 game was hatched by the 2 of them in a bar over drinks while on one of those vacations.

Almost as bad as "We take what we want" ~ Billy C - translation we take 4 star recruits and teach them nothing.
