With the coaches, you don't want to hear everybody saying, 'Move over! Back up! Do this!' Let's find out what the players know.
You get a new coach; you do things a little differently.
You cannot compare Pep to any Brazilian coach. If you put all Brazilian coaches together, you would get Pep. One has motivational skills, another is tactically strong. But Pep has it all.
At the end of the day, Coach Belichick does a great job of bringing in people he knows that will fit well.
The best thing you can say about any coach is his players play hard for him.
At Duke, the coaches would cover up for you. But with the Wolves, something happens and it's in the papers, and I'm blamed. Things are run differently here - the wrong way, if you ask me. One man wants to blame another.
I think coaches who don't coddle but praise players when they deserve it get the best results.
Our coach was absolutely out of his head. He must have read Bear Bryant's book. We had 78 players out. The first day 35 quit. Twenty quit the second day. We ended with 17 players. It was depressing.
I have the mindset of a coach. I have to think, what would a coach think? How would a coach feel if I'm playing a guy a certain way?
Coaches who have been players in the league, they get so attuned to playing how they were successful and who their coaches were.
Jose Mourinho is a great coach. I would really like to work with him, and I once came close. He knows what weapons to use against teams, and he has won everything.
I just coach and get my guys ready.
The best coaches have strong charisma to motivate the whole team while managing the relationship with the media, which can be tense.
Over my NFL career, I've had five head coaches who have helped me become better at my craft and have helped me become a better human being: Jim Mora, Tony Dungy, Jim Caldwell, John Fox, Gary Kubiak.
Bobby Cremins really knows basketball, and he is a good man, too.
Pep is not the best coach in the world. I prefer Mourinho. He is the No.1, because Mourinho is more transparent and more direct than Guardiola.
When I arrived at Bayern he asked me: 'How are you? Are you ready to learn how to play football?' Before, I thought the coach's job was just to set up the team. However, with Guardiola it's something different. He is addicted to football and because of that he is a phenomenon.
William McKinley Oswald was my high school football coach. He was a great coach and had a profound influence on my life. But I think he could have learned his method of motivating players from an army drill sergeant.
Coach Capel's got style. He's always got fresh Nikes on. He's got some pretty sweet suits.
Like I've always said, in football the most important thing is the quality of minutes not the quantity.
When I was coach at Ajax, in the first half of the season, the players needed time to adapt to me, to know who I am as a person and as a coach.
I have a very English coaching philosophy.
When Coach Belichick comes up to you during a game and says something to you, that's great.
When you're the head coach, you coach 53 people, and their wives and their girlfriends and their families and all those people.
I was always a great admirer of Zizou the player, but now I also admire him as a coach. I like how calm he is. This shows me that he's not showcasing for the public or the camera. He's a top trainer.
