Coach Darrell Royal was right!

paducahmichael · Oct 21, 2007

Darrell Royal was a very successful - and colorful - SWC Head Coach for many years. He was also highly quotable. Here are some favorite quotes that actually apply quite nicely to last night's big win.

"If good luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity, bad luck is what happens when lack of preparation meets a challenge."

"Even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while."

"Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity."

"You've got to be in a position for luck to happen. Luck doesn't go around looking for a stumblebum."

"Three things can happen when you throw the ball, and two of them are bad."

"Dance with the one who brung ya." (When asked if he was going to switch from the wishbone to a more popular passing attack).

"It's no disgrace to get knocked down - so long as you get back up."

"Great players give it all they've got to stand up again, average players take awhile, while losers lay flat on the field."
