Coach John Wooden is by far and away one of the most re-known coaches in all of Sport! A small trip down memory lane will reveal that in 12 years as UCLA's coach he won 10 NCAA National Championships! Since then he has written books, and given speeches across the Nation inspiring the coaches and players of the future!
Through the years, Coaches today use his short references, and powerful quotes to motivate and inspire their players!
If you were to ask any player of the Rutgers Football team from the past 10 year what the definition of Success was..... they would respond:
The peace of mind in knowing you did everything you could to be the best you can be!
Coach Schiano preached these words to us as players to ensure we had no regrets, and did everything we could as football players!
