Everything Starts with Discipline Saban

You know, one of the things that we're really trying to establish that we talked about before is, you know, to me, everything starts with discipline. I don't care if it's how you do flex. I don't care if it's how you run across the field, how you do karaoke, how you do high knee pumps, how you do up downs. If you don't respect that enough to do it right when you know that's the right way to do it, how are you going to be trusted in the game to do what you're supposed to do? Because I think discipline is a mindset that's a part of who you are. So it's how you live your life. It's how you do everything that you do, whether it's how you focus in a meeting, how you get ready to practice, and how you can sustain practice and make the right choices and decisions. And, you know, it goes kind of back to what are you willing to accept?

Not really what you say. It's not even what you do sometimes. It's what are you willing to accept from yourself, and what are you willing to accept from your teammates?
