Quotes by Steve Spurrier
So I don't really believe that how many years you've had in the league determines how well your players play... Coaching is coaching. But at some point, we've got to have disciplined play and have got to coach better. I'm not putting it on the players. We've got to coach them to tackle and block better. It's as simple as that. If we can do those things, we'll have a chance. I really believe everything is here for us to be very successful. Number three, we're going to play very smart and we're not going to beat ourselves. If the other team is better than us and they just out execute us and play better then we can live with that, but we're going to play smart and give ourselves every opportunity to win the game. So, I didn't say we are going to win a lot, but we are going to play like winners, and we've got a plan in place to teach our guys how to play like winners and play like a champion. Our stadium seats over 80,000, and we sell all of our tickets. I don't want to coach too far into my 60s. By then, I'll be playing golf four or five times a week. I do have some young coaches, but I don't really believe that is the biggest problem we have here. What I've been telling everyone that loves Carolina football is that we are going to put a team out there that, number one, is in good shape. We're going to be fit, we are going to be able to play the whole game and we're not going to poop out. Number four, we're going to play like winners, play the game the way it's meant to be played. Don't get full of yourself if something good happens. Don't get too depressed when something bad happens.
