Coach Quotes
-
To us, Bo was just this lovable, great, hard-nosed tough coach.

In life it wasn't what you know, but who you know. I had people who were trying to buy teams and had they bought the teams, I would have gotten to coach because they wanted me to coach. But the people who have the teams hire their friends.
Rick Barry

Coach is a straightforward guy. If you're not paying attention to detail, that burns him up. But he'll also be the first to throw his arm around you. He's a fun guy to be around.

It's all on the up-and-up. It was a good business decision for him and for the university. There's nothing worse than to have a coach locked into a five- or six-year contract that doesn't want to be here.

To date, yeah, we probably are. We've done a lot work on zones in the last week and a half, anticipating that everybody is going to play zone, but the team that we feared most was Marquette. I like zone a lot as a coach, but my team doesn't seem to like zones.

We're certainly going to miss Tony Levine, who spent three productive seasons at the University of Louisville. We're excited about bringing Tom into our program. He's a dedicated and bright young coach. He'll bring a lot of enthusiasm and energy to our staff.

It's going to be intense. We were talking about banners the other day, me and Mike Copeland, the fifth freshman and Coach Holladay said, 'If you win your next three games, you get a ring.' That really does kind of put an emphasis on how big these next three games will be.
Bobby Frasor

And yet as a coach, I know that being fixated on winning (or more likely, not losing) is counterproductive, especially when it causes you to lose control of your emotions. What’s more, obsessing about winning is a loser’s game: The most we can hope for is to create the best possible conditions for success, then let go of the outcome. The ride is a lot more fun that way.
Phil Jackson
-
Coach always tells us everybody wants to take the top dog down. I'm kind of surprised we're undefeated, but deep down we know we can handle anybody.
