There is a big difference in wanting to and willing to.
Have a plan. Follow the plan, and you'll be surprised how successful you can be. Most people don't have a plan. That's why it's easy to beat most folks.
Offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships.
Little things make the difference. Everyone is well prepared in the big things, but only the winners perfect the little things.
If wanting to win is a fault, as some of my critics seem to insist, then I plead guilty. I like to win. I know no other way. It's in my blood.
A champion pays an extra price to be better than anyone else.
Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning takes care of itself.
I ain't never had much fun. I ain't never been two inches away from a football. Here guys go fishing on the day of the game, hunting, golfing, and all I want to do is be alone, studying how not to lose.
A few minutes ago, I had a hard time getting through the lobby because of all the people. After today, that won't be happening.
The price of victory is high, but so are the rewards.
A good, quick, small team can beat a big, slow team any time.
Motivating people- the ingredient that separates winners from losers.
Don't talk too much or too soon.
I plan on staying at Alabama for the rest of my career. I guarantee that I'll be here for you through it all, regardless of what happens.
