PHII,OSOPHY, MOTIVATION, AND I&NAGTMXNT 18 on they're going to have to make some deosrons more important than wheth er theyre gonna block or tackle somebodtr Loyatty I believe in loyalty, loyalty to yourseu and loyalty to those who depend on you. The geatest example ofthat I\e ever been around was manyyears ago when Texas A&M was trying to hire me. I was going to help Bear Bryant coach in the East-West Shrine Game. He was going to be the head coach. He'd just b€come th€ \.inningest coach in history in Divi- Bion I; he was the greatest of all time. He and I had coached in some all-star games beforc, and when they asked him to be the head coach, he said he'd do it if I'd come-because he kn€w he would have me do all the work. I got out to San Francisco and met him at the Shrine Hospitalwe wercvisiting. I said,'l've got to talk to you, coach." He said,'Yeah,I been reading the pap€rs about yor. You and I better sit down and have a litUe talk." I said, "Great, as soon as we get back to the hotel." He said, "I'11 give you a call." He called and carne down to my suite, sat down, and started to talk. He looked over and said, "Aren't you gonna offer me a d nk" I got a bottle ofbourbon. He potred himselfa d nk and said, "Texas A&M wants to hire you, eh I'll never forget when I was down therc." He went on and on. He told stoies and rcminisced about all his backeround and his coaching. Finally after about an hour and a half, he looked ovff at me and said, "Well, Bo, we\e talked about you enough. Now we're gonna talk about I said, "Wlat kind ofproblems do you have" I thought he was gonna say something about his h€alth. But he said, "Bo, I don't want to go back to the office. I don't want to call the ofFce. I don't want to recluit one more kid;I want to quit." I said, "Bear, everybody in the world expects you to quit at your aee. You've just broken the rccord. You've done everything yol1 could possi bly do. Its time lor you to quit. Why dont you just go ahead and do it" So I put on a little show. I grabbed the phone and sai d, "Here, lefs call your president ght now." He said, "Oh, no. Itt not that easy. You'rc gonna find that out some day I've got 47 people back there thai I hircd at the Univedity ofAlabama. What's gonna happen to them jfI quit" You know the story: He went back and coached again. He didn'twantto. Hewas sick, andhe was old and tired. He coached one morc year, finally quit, and soon afterward was dead. That, to me, demonstrated loyalty. He wouldn'tjust walk out on hisjob.It wasn't that easy. Now, gentlemen, I call that loyalty. I see gxys flyinc around. jumping arnund. leaving people sittins cold and not knowins what they're doins. Bryant couldn't do that. Wh€n he finally did leave,I'm sure there were people who were out in the cold. tntegfity I believe in honesty and int€gity As you d€al with your pl ayers and your coaches and everybody else connected with football, gentlemen, you must be honest and you must do it with integdty. I don't feel sorry for those people who g€t caught and put on probation. I don't feel sorry for people who get the death penalty. We have rules and rcgulations we have to opemte under, and when you break those rules you must pay the price. There's enough criticism at everylevel across the country that we as coaches cannot afford to operate any otherwaythan witb honesty and integrity. That's yourjob, and if you can't win legitimately that way, maybe you shouldn't If) ou re In a sirualion where I great .eason i" winning half your games, realize it, and nake sure the people around you realize it. We must conductou$elves so that we are above reproach. Thats the only way to sall your progmm. And that last thine I believe is that when we coach, every single one ofour playeN must feel, when his career is ended, that it was one ofthe most meaninetul exp€riences he's ever had or ever will have. Ifit is not, then we'rc at fault. All of us coach for on€ reason, and only one r€ason: what efect it bas on the guy we coach. I don't mind filling that stadium at Michigan. I don't mind making millions of dollaN. But I'm gonnatell'emone thing:We're only gonna do it if it's in the best interests ofthose guys who play That's important. If they come back and say, "Hey, tbis was the greatest thing that ever hap pened to me," then it was all worth it. 1989 Pro@dinss. Coach Schembechler uas h.ad caach at the Uniuercit! ol Mi.higan
188 FOOTBALL COACHING STRATEGIES rl *3 Ae l B ii g $ $ 1} t ::!r*c $ F $ il { g g** [ g€& *, d Things I've Learned From Goaching JOE PATERNO :1* E U€ ]]* g3$]i; 11 i * X X Q e* * E{ $ $9 A g$'$$ i C I'll never forget the frlst time I spoke at the Atlantic City coa€hes clinic way back in the old days, when Dr. Harry Scott was running it. He set me up one night. We had a little dinner, and Harry said, 'Joe, I've been reading everything you have had to say about football. I've been wat{hing you, the way you have coached, and I've asked a friend of mine who is an author to put together a book, and I want you to have thtu. The title of the book h Whdt I Knoo About Foorball by Joe Patemo." I col d hadly wait to get at the book. I opened it up, and there were 200 €mprl pages. I still have that book. The first clinic I went to was back in 1950, when I waE in my first year of coaching at Penn State. Four of us got in the car and drove all night fr.m Srate College to Dallas. and ne werp going to stay at the Baker Hotel. The university gave us $50 each for expenses. We rented a room and shared the expenses of the cax We walked into the Baker Hotel about twelve or one at night, and there was a whole crowd of people in the lobby There was this kind of heary guy holdins court, running the clinic. That was Woody Hayes. Woody had just had ar undefeated season at Miami of Ohio and was in the proc$s of being int€rviewed for the Ohio State job. He was in there talking about how he blocked the off-tackle play. We were there until four in the moming, and I was fascinated. That was my introduction to the American Football Coaches Association clruc. About Teaching I know most ofyou may have heard this before, but first and foremost, what I have learned is that a coach must be a teacher. I was able to learn thft from a pe$on who I truly believ€ to be one of the best coaches and t€achem ever: Rip Engle. Rip would never let us put in more than the kids could handle. He was constantly evaluating the assiBtant6 to determine how much new material they were putting in and how quickly the kids were comprehending it. I can't tell you how important that is. The minute you have to play a kid that can't learn quickly, can't handle some things you want to do, all of a sudden your whole scheme has come down. We couldnt do some things we do in our secondary if we didn't have four bright kids back there who could handle sorn€ of the adjustments, the checks, the change-ups on coverages. We can only go as fast as the slowest lea.ner About Players In evaluatirg pemonnel, I've always believ€d that the frrst thing was consistency, the second thing was the RBI-the guy that can mak€ the big play and $.in the same for you-and the third thing was the guy that makes the major er'ror. You can't play him. I try to remember what players can do well. Ifyou hav€ a player that can do something particularly well, don't forget it. In the €lutch, that's what vou want to use.
