I hear ya! As you know I've coached soccer at the recreation level and club level since 1987 and believe it or not, I have used Coach Bryant's quotes many many times to inspire my teams. They work wonders in the lives of kids. I've experienced many very successful seasons and contribute much of that success to lessons I've learned and knowledge gained from studying the words of Coach Bryant. It's amazing how much that man still effects the lives of people that knew and loved him.
