I'll play...Hank Stam - Super Bowl IV right before Mike Garrett streaks to the end zone on a "heck of a call".  Stram was the first Super Bowl coach to agree to wear a mic for NFL Films.  A classic NFL Film.

"There's many a boy here today who looks on football as all glory, but boys it's all hell." 


Edit:  Since I have no idea who authored Jeff's last quote, I thought I'd challenge BAers with my own obscure quote from a coach who was a master of the misdirection play, had a record for fewest injuries to his men, and could sustain high morale among his team during a grueling season.

OCF, is that Bill Hess?

We now have two quotes out there for consideration, so let's hold off on introducing any more quotes until these two are guessed.

Was that Lee Corso when he used to be in the booth?

Nice guess, but it's not Lee Corso.  It WAS said on a nationally broadcasted game, though.

My next guess was Bo Schembecler when he was in the booth. But I wouldn't think he'd diss OSU's band like that...

Not sure what coach you claim said that! But that quote is actually William T. Sherman's quote from a address at a Military Academy in the 1870's
