Successful basketball coaches are those that subscribe to a system that is based on sound fundamental teachings.

Don Meyer

Coaches who have been players in the league, they get so attuned to playing how they were successful, and who their coaches were.

Coaches who have been players in the league, they get so attuned to playing how they were successful and who their coaches were.

Jerry West

You definitely go through a stage, most coaches do, where you see a good player and you get enamored, you really like what the player does, but then when you put him into your system, it's not quite the same player that he was in another system. He has some strengths, but you cant utilize all those strengths. If you try to utilize all his strengths, you end up weakening a lot of other players who are already in your system.

Bill Belichick

In management, everything is different. If you look at successful coaches, they always need time to kickstart something. Arrigo Sacchi - when he started the revolution at Milan, he was almost on the brink of being sacked, but then he won, and people started believing in the system; he had more time to breathe.

Edgar Davids

I needed somebody to love me, and the people that I chose were my coaches. I would sacrifice my body to be successful for my coaches because I wanted them to love me, to respect me, to have positive feelings about me.

Steve Largent

I think coaches really do matter because they see the game, and we just play the game from a different point of view, so they're able to give us a lot of tips and a lot of pointers, and I think coaches are really, really important.

Metta World Peace

When you're not dealing with superstars, coaches want players to fit their system. But superstars are the system.

Jared Dudley

My coaching staff gets to go to the World Series. From a financial perspective that's great for coaches because baseball coaches in the Major League level don't really make that much money. People don't realize that.

Joe Maddon

I've got a lot of respect for a handful of coaches, and there's a lot of great stuff put out there on film. So, I always want to stay up to speed on those current trends and figure out if you can steal something that fits your players and your system. I'm certainly not afraid to steal from some of these great coaches.

Sean McVay

Coaches are well aware, especially at quarterback, that it's not the system but the player who comes first.

Herm Edwards

We coaches have to learn how to deal with that: How do I get to each one best - with a talk, with video analysis? And what sort of tone? We need our own coaches for that. The sports psychologist coaches me too.

Jurgen Klinsmann

The common belief that coaches must be abusive to be successful is a myth. Research shows that if you find a task fun, you'll perform better. If more coaches took . . . a Golden Rule approach to coaching, treating their players the way they themselves would like to be treated, fewer athletes would drop out of sports in their teens, and more athletes at every level would be happier and more satisfied.

Ralph Nader

As coaches, you want to be able to put your players in a system that's conducive to their success.

Sean McVay

Choosing a system is no longer enough, coaches have to be psychologists and motivational leaders too.

Giorgio Chiellini

Everybody on my team - I couldn't do their jobs. I could not. I really mean that. So I figured out early on that the way you're successful is you hire really successful people.
