So true codfish ! Thats a champ of a quote.
Payton Jordan used to say: "Sure enough!" I never really understood what that was supposed to mean. It always sounded a little like a quote from Mr. Natural or something (R. Crumb.) But it wasn't, since it was coming from a John Birch Society member and right-wing conspiracy theorist...
Hey, how come nobody's written "Train, don't strain?" (Or "No Strain, no Gain?" Or maybe someone has...)
"Noone ever drowned in sweat"
"Absofu*kinglutely"
After beating a conference rival picks up a piece of paper that was talking crap about our team on one of the forums.
He stands in front of the members of the other team and throws the paper at the other team and says "Take that TBURG"

What kind of quote is that for a coach to say to a group of athletes?
"Get the lead and don't let them pass you."
"God dammit Phillips, you're running like a f***ing donkey!"

"The 4x4 is like jello...theres always room for jello at the end of a big meal and there's always room for the 4x4 after a lot of races."
"Rub some dirt on your face, it'll toughen ya up"
"The windier and rainier the better...we're mudders" - quoted to a local newpaper about our chances at a regional meet
"The holes in her mesh dress were the size of quarters." -Coach, caught in a tangent about some hooker in Toronto
"Get your damn hands out of the peanut butter jar!" -Coach, after beginning a weekly team meeting by telling us that he was worried about recent actions by team members that he felt were indicative of a negative attitude
"Don't suck." -Coach, during his pre-conference meet motivation speech (we had our best finish in school history; he got Coach of the Year)
Concerning work-outs and practice
"There's only two things guaranteed in life...death and taxes and some days you're gonna feel like you're gonna die out here"
Doesn't make that much sense but I liked it
Before a "Speed Endurance" work-out
"This is the closest you're gonna feel to death until you acutally die"
"This is the closest many of you are going to come to joining the Marines"
"There's no such thing as 'Indoor Track'..it's Winter Track...we only compete Indoors"
"I'll have some liquid refreshment at tht bottom of the hill"
Track Coaches rule!
This was said about weekly:
"You guys squat to piss"
He also rode a moped around and yelled at us on the roads. Did I mention he was fat?
"Right now Anthony's got a little bit of an edge on you, but he's not here today so this is your chance to catch him, you have to suck on Anthony's tail." Sad thing is that he's a pretty serious guy and we all respected him so none of us wanted to say anything right away but man it's a great joke since he retired.
Got this from the crew people: "No brain, no pain."
And Elmer S's parting words to his Wesleyan teams, just before the gun in an x-c race: "Hurry back."
there were many great ones from my college coach, but this is my favorite.
"f*ck you"
