A Note from Hayden…
I was raised in the state
of Kentucky.
I had the distinct
Pleasure of meeting
Kentucky Coach Joe B. Hall
When I was a freshman
Basketball player for
The Webster County
Trojans.
He was Recruiting
Freddie Cowan
A player who went on
To have a good career
With the Wildcats.
The Mark Pope era
Begins tonight with
The event Coach Hall
Inaugurated…
“Big Blue Madness”
These inspiring quotes
Are from some of the
Greatest to ever coach
The game I love so much!
- Hayden Childs
Enjoy!

Bottom line, you’re either a
risk taker or you’re not.
And if you don’t take risks,
you’ll never win big.”
- Coach Geno Auriemma
Basketball doesn’t care what
color your skin is.
It doesn’t care what language
you speak or what religion
you practice.
It doesn’t care if you’re big or small,
fast or slow.
It just asks you to play, to complete,
to lose with dignity, to win with humility.
- Coach Jim Calhoun
Empower the people around you,
from the janitor to the athletic director.
You do that by being sincere,
caring about others and then
putting it into practice.
- Coach Sue Gunter
When life kicks you,
let it kick you forward.
- Coach Kay Yow
Everyone should want to excel in life.
You should never take the desire to
excel away from the human race.
- Coach Henry Iba
Discipline is the highest form of love.
If you really love someone,
you have to give them the level of
discipline they need.
- Coach Tom Izzo
If you laugh, you think and you cry,
that’s a full day. That’s a heck of a day.
You do that seven days a week,
you’re going to have something special.
- Coach Jim Valvano
The will to succeed is important,
but what’s more important is
the will to prepare.
- Coach Bob Knight
A basketball team is like
the five fingers on your hand.
If you can get them all together,
you have a fist.
That’s how I want to play.
- Coach Mike Krzyzewksi
Talent is God given. Be humble.
Fame is man-given. Be grateful.
Conceit is self-given. Be careful.
- Coach John Wooden
***
Success is the best
Builder of character.
Your defense will save you
on the nights that your offense
isn’t working.
He who controlleth the backboard,
controlleth the game.
We feel that every boy that
Puts on a Kentucky uniform
Just plays a little better
Than he would in one
Of another color.
- Coach Adolph Rupp
“The Baron”
“The Man in the brown suit”
***
For order and a society to exist…
And a Basketball team is a society
Within itself…
It needs discipline.
- Coach Joe Beasman Hall
Humility is the true key to success.
Successful people lose their way at times.
They often embrace and overindulge
from the fruits of success.
Humility halts this arrogance and
self-indulging trap.
Humble people share the credit and wealth,
remaining focused and hungry to continue
the journey of success.
- Coach Rick Pitino
Every coach in America at every
other job in America stands up at
the press conference and they try
and moderate expectations,”
“We don’t do that here in Kentucky…
When (athletic director) Mitch (Barnhart)
called me and talked to me about being
the head coach here at Kentucky,
I understand the assignment.
We are here to win banners.
- Coach Mark Pope
