Fred Graves Quotations

I met Steve one day at the Taco Bell. I fell in love with him right there.

He's getting better. He's a work in progress, and he's coming through with more confidence about what he's doing. Obviously he's in better shape. He's going to be good.

Steve is the most competitive guy I've ever had in 26 years of coaching. I really thought he'd be this good because he's such a competitor.

If I toss you a brick, without saying a word, I know where your eyes and hands will be. That's all it is. It's a focus drill.

When he comes off the ball, there ain't no jamming him. If you stick your arm out there, it's like putting your arm out on a railroad track. He's a powerful guy.

It was booming, I had to move because they sold my lot to KFC.

I'm hoping. I don't know if he can or not. You never know what's in the back of guys' minds. If they all clear the slate and they all start working at it, I think they'll be fine.

If you start by doing it right, they'll be better in the end. But if I let them go, it ain't going to happen.

I think every staff thinks that. Everyone thinks, 'Hey, we're going change these guys. We're going to do this.' It's not going to change unless the players want it to change, and that's the big thing.
