I love Jimmy V's story about coaching the Rutgers freshman team and trying to copy Lombardi's speech for his players...Lombardi told the Packers before his first game as coach - "We will be successful if you focus on three things: Your family, your religion, and Green Bay Packers football - in that order." Of course Jimmy V - as a 21 year old coach, was going to use that with his 19 year-old freshman, but forgot to change the Green Bay Packers to Rutgers Basketball...he was a funny and classy guy at the same time...
