" The worst thing a woman says about me. War what a great coach but he cheated."

" That being the worst slap in the face you could say about me you know what I'm lack of a boy he was. One of the best and he did it the right way that what. Well I think the biggest thing that I try to get across to them once -- went okay. Number one I told I told a -- don't take shortcuts. Don't take short you know do everything you do can't the build a winner. But do not shape I want him amendment would not want to do with the right way. And and and just win baby you know I do expect to win right and you go away you go away and if you do it right where art but I felt like he had. What it took. You've been around it enough education and everything that yeah all of you will be victors. In your own own way you know."

" To me this activate the one thing I've always that is the way you treat people -- work -- I think the one thing and I think is that somehow it is that you're that. The medium and prevention everybody is that while -- will work for your dad around as -- today. -- But there's just something that that that. The way in which I think everybody has worked for that I -- felt like you made them better coach that you respected -- And they enjoyed their time with the -- and it made everybody better you know. Abolish helps you get a good they're the thing I've always tried to do. Always felt like you give what got you go out how the best you can hear right. And they and have since not believe Malone let him do his work -- what. I think that's what do coaches and -- appreciate you know."

" Well that you know what I guess two major kind of management style coaching styles you. Micro manager. Alligators both of them are successful ways to do that -- and say. The delegation type management style of of hiring good people give them responsibility hold him accountable. And that's part one biggest things I learned all he can try to hire good people. Delegate authority in and let him -- and it's thanks happen. A lot of coaches took -- them -- we were probably can all have incorporated a management style feel very comfortable with it probably -- Like they a lot of the nuts and bolts some basic foundation. And fundamentals of of that style. His fourth with this success yeah. It's a little bit like clear just you know when it when it's when it's good it's good -- bad is bad but you never have handled people differently. Under under either situation. And it's I thank you that consistency. That coaches you know appreciate the people around you've appreciated. So while that's pretty big deal now."

" entry of the -- and I think importantly. That I blog and I think I've taken from -- you treat people good people in the -- that -- for you to freedoms that and you trade him you know good. And and it helps number I think the that the the coaches do a better job and they. The atmosphere was what would. -- I've been fortunate to have a good coaches you know. And been very fortunate in that regard. Coaches and daughter and some are fond of them are going great -- with a."

" You know going through and got tough over the officiating yeah. Probably one of things that benefited me most was just watching you because. -- obviously you've you've done this. A lot longer and having been born that you just. You handled it. You -- so calm when the at all you know that was really an up befell it helpful to me. It would be got it goes without the situation where they -- one golf yeah and things were born right."

" Now this coaching with -- each other you know it's the that they if you look at our stats I mean with as far as whip and did not with a first division one ever head coach -- ever to coach at the same dominant history at -- one like football. You to the first ever to play coach against each other yeah well Bristol on the fate of -- working with each other on Venezia you know what would would we don't have the Auburn job -- you don't realize you were on the staff. With coach about it at all and so course that I had the connections I guess throughout thought idea you know what I got a head job. In here was it messed up the way things are supposed to work you're here and a boulder I was compliment is it. How and why -- more comfortable if -- been head coach I would have gotten the job and worked -- out of work for you. But but. We made it work and it but it was not the way it was supposed to go but we we -- out there and won twenty straight ball games and made it work but. -- not failing that what in the late was supposed to they got just happened to get the job. And enough and that -- wrong step you know now that there's -- and -- the -- down there there's no -- that don't work. You're the oldest that you could be further it is just the work that way you. I mean you've always been known as the as a get all depressed about what what was always you that was that's what you try to do early after the there's coaches that could care less what the press thinks he's they even more open you've depressed and all available and good -- I think of that of that number one."

" I always had little jobs. And had to try to build them in the big job you know -- what when I was at West Virginia we will always. Kind of behind did. You know. And then when I was a Howard college of small. By. The excuse that I came to Florida State nobody you -- state laws and so I realized the importance of the media. I've got to get Florida State's name out there and probably. You know I really did they evacuated to the media I know -- I felt like proud program bill's success. That I've got to expose our players and our team to the media that -- little bit more strict on that map here that I want thirty years ago. Because they've got it's got tougher and tighter and more negative right there's too much negativity out there. I'm still always Flacco almost story. You know when -- fault the -- the last -- you know and but I gotta make a living his life."
