When you play professionally, you get accustomed to turnover. Players come and go - they get injured, they get transferred, they get cut from the team. Coaches are hired, and coaches are fired. It's just part of the world you live in.

Tim Howard

We've lost a lot of coaches around here, but the philosophy and the approach, the standards we have set and the expectations we have maintained have always been upheld from one year to the next.I attribute that to the great character of the players and the willingness of the coaches to not get influenced and get off-message and to get out of the way.

Pete Carroll

I'm getting used to this as a coach because it's a little jealousy from a lot of these coaches around the country. I do understand that, because we are NBA players trying to come back, and we didn't have any experience as college coaches. So we didn't, quote, unquote, 'Pay our dues.'

Penny Hardaway

When you get in coaching, you realize there are only two kinds of coaches - those that are fired and those who are going to get fired.

Bruce Arians

I criticize a lot of players and coaches. But I back it up with facts. A lot of times guys get mad at me because someone told them what I said. I say, 'You're wrong: Go check the tape.'

Phil Simms

I have known a lot of coaches, but Tuchel gets to get into the players' heads quickly. You want to listen to him. And give 100% because he gives himself thoroughly.

Marco Verratti

When I started I knew it was a matter of when, not if, I would get fired. That's because that was just the past history of the previous coaches that had been there.

LaVell Edwards

Coach Noll is quite demanding all the time. He expects a lot from both his players and assistant coaches because that is the only way he knows how to get the job done.

Mike Webster

I'm worried because a lot of coaches aren't having fun. They're miserable, worried about getting fired, fighting recruiting.

Mack Brown

I put myself around good people, including my assistant coaches. A lot of head coaches are intimidated by their assistant coaches, they'd rather get people that are far less talented than them because it's not threatening.

Tony DiCicco

I don't think coaches should have to wear mic's. It is an invasion of privacy. We are trying to accomplish things, and wearing microphones may hinder development by straining the nature of relationships coaches and players have.

Steve Nash

A lot of coaches and players get so tunnel-visioned that when they do have some time off, they spend it concentrating on the game.

Troy Aikman

A lot of players and pundits can be talking the Scottish league down and it's not until players and coaches actually experience it they start respecting it.

John McGinn

Some coaches prefer players who will just do whatever he tells them to. It's like, if you're at school with a load of 10-year-old boys and you tell them to jump, everyone will start to jump. But the intelligent boy will ask, 'Why should I jump? Why?' That can be difficult for a lot of coaches, and I understand that.
