“When I am on the field, I am an assistant coach responsible to the head coach and I convey that attitude, ... I am a volunteer to help these young men kick the football. That's my job in that arena.”
David Roe
“A good manager doesn't try to eliminate conflict; he tries to keep it from wasting the energies of his people. If you're the boss and your people fight you openly when they think that you are wrong - that's healthy.”
Robert Townsend
“The manager of a team is like a stagecoach, he can't move unless he has the horses.”
Pete Rose
“Some guys, when they get into coaching they're just dying to be a head coach, ... I was not as much that way as some guys are, because I like the coaching part. Every time I see a head coach, as they become a head coach, they become more of an administrator and CEO and less of a head coach.”
Lance Reynolds
“To stand here on the same field with Dave, him being the head coach at Hopkins and me being the head coach at Albany, it really doesn't get much better than that.”
Scott Marr
“Since he became head coach, he became harder. He coached like a head coach is supposed to. I think he did a great job in his first year, getting us to the Final Four. I believe he's the first coach to ever do something like this.”
Tae Orr
“We head into the eye of the storm when everyone else is heading out.”
