Defensive Backs Philosophy

"A teacher is never a giver of truth, he is merely a guide to the truth that the student must discover for himself."


"The Art of a Defensive Back is a never ending quest for perfection ... of developing the spirit and body to defeat your opponent ... one's self."


"You can remove the man from the Art of a Defensive Back, (playing)  but you cannot remove the Art of a Defensive Back from the man (knowledge)."


"We are the sum total of our thoughts, everything we are, we have thought first."


"He who knows others is wise, He who knows himself is informed."


"He who conquers himself is the greatest of warriors."


"The Defensive Back philosophy of calmness and confidence is the oposite of aggression and inhumanity."


It is written, "Do not invite the fight, accept it instead..... Better a foot behind than a inch too far ahead."


"The young masters are respected, but the old masters are honored."


"Adversity causes some men to break ... others to break records."


"I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position one has reached in life as by the obstacles which one has to overcome while trying to succeed."          (Booker T. Washington  1856)


"There is no easy way to be great." (Fred Astaire)


"Being smart is ten times better than athletic ability."  (Bob Knight)
