Dean Smith Sports Quotations

The presidents of colleges have to have some courage to step forward. You can't limit alcohol in college sports, you have to get rid of it.

Basketball, more than any other sport, is a team game...about the thousands of small, unselfish acts, the sacrifices on the part of the players that result in team building.

You can't teach court savvy

What do do with a mistake: recognize it, admit it, learn from it, forget it.

If you make every game a life-and-death thing, you're going to have problems. You'll be dead a lot.
