Ask me Quote by Geno Auriemma
“I've had the privilege of coaching the best basketball team in the history of the world, and that's the USA national team. I've had a chance to coach them for eight years. If you were to ask me if I could end my career only coaching one team for the rest of my coaching career, I don't think it could get better than that, especially with the players that I've had during those eight years. When you've coached at that level, you know, you've coached those players, it's pretty hard to say, I would rather coach anybody else.”

![“I've learned a lot about the process. I had no idea how the balls got from the officials locker room down on the field and so forth and so on and all of that. That's not something I have ever thought or concerned myself about [on] game day. I've concerned myself with preparing and coaching the team.” quote by Bill Belichick](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/b28/bill-belichick-4882_balls_i-ve-learned-a-lot-about-the-process-i-h_752127.jpg)
