-“Focus on the process of what it takes to be successful.”
-“We’re not going to talk about what we’re going to accomplish, we’re going to talk about how we’re going to do it.”
-“I’m tired of hearing all this talk from people who don’t understand the process of hard work—like little kids in the back seat asking ‘Are we there yet?’ Get where you’re going 1 mile-marker at a time.”
-“The scoreboard has nothing to do with the process. Each possession you look across at the opponent and commit yourself to dominate that person. It’s about individuals dominating the individuals they’re playing against. If you can do this…if you can focus on the one possession and wipe out the distractions…then you will be satisfied with the result.”
-“Focus on the play like it has a history and a life of its own.”
-“Success doesn’t come from pie-in-the-sky thinking. It’s the result of consciously doing something each day that will add to your overall excellence.”
-“You can’t get from A to Z by passing up B.”
-“It’s not the end result. Don’t think about winning the SEC Championship. Don’t think about the national championship. Think about what you needed to do in this drill, on this play, in this moment. That’s the process: Let’s think about what we can do today, the task at hand.”
-“One thing we need to do differently in motivating players and helping them be successful is not to talk about results. Our goal next year is to be a dominant football team.”
-“If you don’t get result-oriented with the kids, you can focus on the things in the process that are important to them being successful.”
