Famous quotes by Rick Pitino:

"They're going to have to get a coach as good as Bob Huggins, and that's not easy to find. But if they can attract someone of the caliber of Bob Huggins, they can certainly continue."

"Bob Huggins, a lot of times, is misunderstood. He's someone who cares a great deal about his players. He wants to see them do well and he really goes the extra yard for players."

"Their guys have so much experience they're on Social Security. They're getting checks. They've been around. They play like a pro team. They run about 70 percent pick-and-roll. They force traps. They force you to switch. If it was a series, Georgia Tech would probably beat us."

"Nobody we've played this season, ... has come with this much size, this much talent and this much experience. North Carolina and Georgia Tech probably have the most overall talent. Now that they're healthy, they're probably believing they can do it."

"I just don't deal with the negativity. I can't get involved in that side of it. I don't understand it, and you can't let it take away from your life and what you are trying to do."

"Little did he know what was going on behind the scenes."

"A man not perfect, but of heart so high, of such heroic rage, That even his hopes became a part of earth's eternal heritage."

"The only way to get people to like working hard is to motivate them. Today, people must understand why they're working hard. Every individual in an organization is motivated by something different."

"Failure is good. It's fertilizer. Everything I've learned about coaching, I've learned from making mistakes."

"Excellence is the unlimited ability to improve the quality of what you have to offer."

"After September 11, I don't think people really believe things like this are all that important."

"I'm at the stage of my career when it's not only about winning and developing players, it's about having fun. That's a void in your life right now, but it's something you're going to have here."

"The other guys just caught lightning in a bottle with a great game."

"It could happen to anyone when you get hired by a different president. There's a difference in philosophies. It happens. It's a change in CEOs. They have their own people, their own philosophies, and it's different than what Bob stands for."

"If I didn't have a recruiting engagement, I was going to be here. I did everything possible to change the recruiting thing. I'm a very small part of this night, but I did want to be a part of it."

"I can say that hands down from being in this business 32 years; we're going to be much better than we were last year just because there's eight new players that now have experience and Palacios will be healthy."

"Francisco Garcia could have been a high draft choice last year, probably in the 20s. He's the best wing player I've ever coached. But he's done it the right way. He knew he had to work on his body to become a good pro. When he goes into the pros, he'll be physically ready."
