Francisco Garcia could have been a high draft choice last year, probably in the 20s. He’s the best wing player I’ve ever coached. But he’s done it the right way. He knew he had to work on his body to become a good pro. When he goes into the pros, he’ll be physically ready Picture Quote #1

It could happen to anyone when you get hired by a different president. There’s a difference in philosophies. It happens. It’s a change in CEOs. They have their own people, their own philosophies, and it’s different than what Bob stands for Picture Quote #1

At Boston University, I motivated negatively, and I found that although it can work at first, by the end of the year everyone is dying for the year to end and you have lost them. The last two years at BU, I motivated positively and got much better results Picture Quote #1

Self-esteem is directly linked to deserving success. You must deserve victory to feel good about yourself Picture Quote #1

Humility is the true key to success. Successful people lose their way at times. They often embrace and overindulge from the fruits of success. Humility halts this arrogance and self-indulging trap. Humble people share the credit and wealth, remaining focused and hungry to continue the journey of success Picture Quote #1

Technology is a compulsive and addictive way to live. Verbal communication cannot be lost because of a lack of skill. The ability to listen and learn is key to mastering the art of communication. If you don’t use your verbal skills and networking, it will disappear rapidly. Use technology wisely Picture Quote #1

Tackle the difficult things first in the morning; make changes in the way you network. Treat everyone with respect and dignity. This stops you from cynicism and negativity. End your day with that same attitude you started. Renew your contract with a day well completed Picture Quote #1

I give myself 24 hours after a loss. After that, I’m totally on to the next game. But for 24 hours, I’m not a happy man Picture Quote #1

Passion and hunger are the two ingredients that I look for in first making the judgment on - whether an athlete, an assistant coach, or a horse trainer or anybody I do business with Picture Quote #1

The one thing I’ve always said: Let your family and close friends be the judge of who you are as a person. Don’t worry about being judged by others who don’t know you, because your family and close friends know what you’re all about, good and bad Picture Quote #1

Basketball is my passion, and I love it, and I love to see my players succeed. I’m here for them and my children. That’s my passion Picture Quote #1

It’s better to have a good player with the basketball in late game situations than to have plays Picture Quote #1

I plan to coach at University of Louisville for as long as I can maintain the passion I have for the game of basketball. I don’t want to coach anywhere else. I don’t believe in anything else as much as I believe in this university and this state. I want to coach as long as they will have me Picture Quote #1

I loved going to the Knicks because we won the Atlantic Division championship. We went from winning 21 games or 19 games to winning 52 games in a short period of time. I loved coaching Patrick Ewing and Charles Oakley and all those guys Picture Quote #1

I care what people think, but it doesn’t change my opinion of how to do things Picture Quote #1

I never thought that shoes would be the reason that you recruit players, but it’s a factor. I think we need to get the shoe companies out of the lives of the athletes. I think we need to get it back to where parents and coaches have more of a say than peripheral people, but that’s easier said than done Picture Quote #1

All good things have to come to an end, and the male cheerleader has come to an end Picture Quote #1

Failure is good. It’s fertilizer. Everything I’ve learned about coaching I’ve learned from making mistakes Picture Quote #1

Humility is what makes teams great. I’ve preached it for a long period of time Picture Quote #1
