Dabo quote needed
Aug 2, 2016, 7:53 AM
|

At the school I teach at, we are in the process of painting inspirational quotes rough out the school. In the gym we want to paint quotes by coaches. What is your favorite quote by Dabo that would be appropriate to use for an elementary school?

They ain't Alabama. They ain't LSU. And they're certainly not Clemson. That's why Carolina's in Chapel Hill and USC's in California and the university in the state has been, and always will be, Clemson.

That would be perfect for some random high school gym.***

This is from a Tigernet article

"There's no elevator to greatness," Swinney said. "There are no elevators to your goals and dreams and desires. You must take the steps. Everybody got that? Nobody’s giving you an elevator to take you (there). If they did, it ain’t gonna last, because you’re not going to be prepared, because you didn’t pay the price, alright? What I’m telling you is y’all never been 15. You’ve never been 20. You’ve never been 25. But hopefully, Lord willing, you will be, so what we want to do is try to prepare you, through our experiences, through our mistakes, through our successes, so hopefully, you’ve got a leg up on being successful."
I like the "There's no elevator to greatness" quote.

POINTS TO ALL for the quotes...however

No points to the OP for beginning the post with:
"At the school I teach at..." (Hopefully you're not an English teacher).
Apologies to @TigerScott88 as I could not give you multiple TUs in the same thread...
Great recommendations by all!
Go Tigers!!

Thanks Bill. I didn't have the nerve to post that! Let's hope he isn't a Clemson grad too

HaHa FORESTTIGER! Thankfully I read all the posts before I replied to this^^^. A 'TU' to you for your second post below. Good to see you regained your 'nerve'! Having seen a number of your previous comments, I knew you were 'selling yourself short' here!
And for you tigerfan28173, I will apologize for my snarky comment, but I also have to reiterate: YOU are not only a teacher, but a role model for many, as well. In a thread with the quote: "Best is standard", I encourage you to follow suit!
GO TIGERS!!!

While they will probably only put one Clemson quote in the gym, my classroom is my own. I already have a poster that says, "Best is standard."

Any quote by Dabo would be appropriate at the school where you teach.

While I would agree, I am not exactly surrounded by fellow Clemson fans. I have persuaded 2 colleagues to put tiger paws outside their doors. I used to be surrounded by SC fans but most of them have gone away.

There's a quote on the wall of the indoor facility
Aug 3, 2016, 5:46 AM
|

That says "When you do the common things in an uncommon way, you command the attention of the world" Always loved that.
There's another one that says "Formula for success -prepare with purpose -effort with technique -all in commitment to do your BEST"
