“He was a motivator. He knew the difference between a pat on the back and a kick in the butt, and that difference is only six inches. He was able to do both at the same time, and that’s why he was a good coach. He was able to correct kids, but make them feel like they were a million dollars.”
-Vic Whiting

The world has lost a great coach, but a better man.
