important
What you do is not as important as how you do it.
decision coaching life-is
The further I get away from coaching, the more I know I made the right decision. You almost forget how wonderful family life is.
country responsibility home
I think I've got a responsibility to be home a little bit more, be available to my family a little bit more and do some things to help make our country better. I don't know what that is right now, but we'll see.
people advice needs
If someone needs help, I can offer advice. I'm not always right and people don't always listen.
football god-is-in-control inspiring-football
I said all along that God is in control.
leadership football differences
God's definition of success is really one of the significant differences our lives can make in the lives of others.
football captains shows
If I can't get the captains to respond appropriately and show the leadership I expect, how is anyone else going to respond?

The fundamental keys to the culture of any organization can only be achieved when everyone is on the same page.
humility important indispensable
We are all important, but we are not indispensable.
best-effort differences giving
What will people remember us for? Are other people’s lives better because we lived? Did we make a difference? Did we use to the fullest the gifts and abilities God gave us? Did we give our best effort, and did we do it for the right reasons?
mom teacher growing-up
I could never have pictured myself writing a book when I was 25 years old. My mom was an English teacher but I wasn't that way growing up.
football team gay
Gay marriage and who should be on a football team have nothing to do with each other.
motivational teamwork hard-work
Hard work and togetherness. They go hand in hand. You need the hard work because it's such a tough atmosphere... to win week in and week out. You need togetherness because you don't always win, and you gotta hang though together.
jobs dad thinking
It's just really making sure I am doing the best job I can do as a dad. I do think that is my No. 1 job.
