From Joe Paterno:Basic Beliefs
1. The Coach is a Teacher, not a Strategist.
a. Coaching is one thing. It is creating in practice the situation the player will face in the game, and then repeating it until he can react by rote memory.
2. Have a directed work effort toward constructive things.
3. Performance is what counts.
a. Potential makes no difference.
b. Don't ever get sold on what defeats the teams you can beat anyway. Devote yourself only to those plays which will win the championship game for you.
c. Practice to beat great teams.
4. Consistency
a. Team that wins is the team that makes the fewest number of bad plays.
b. The best player is the player who makes the fewest bad individual plays.
