Ernie Accorsi Quotes
«He's a project. It's not going to happen overnight. Basketball teams are filled with great athletes. The question is, does he have the fortitude to play this sport, where you're getting hit in the mouth every play? It's going to depend on how hard he wants it and how hard he works.»

«I think he's got a chance. We're not doing this as a gimmick. There was competition to get him. I'm pleased we got him.»

He told me I was out of my mind. He said, 'Do you think I want to get hit in the mouth on every play?' It's a different world. It's all about wanting it badly enough.»
«I once went to a basketball game and told Charles Barkley he'd make a great tight end. And he said, 'No thank you.' Most of them don't want to do it because, in football, you get smacked in the mouth.»

«There was a receiver picked the year his brother came out. I heard, 'We picked the bigger receiver.' But he wasn't the better receiver. It is speed that kills. I'm not worried about (size).»
«His 'Take the Field' program was one of the most innovative and beautiful efforts in athletics in this country, ... His efforts provide fields of play for young New York athletes who otherwise would have no place to play.»
«These are two body punches we've taken back-to-back, ... We haven't gotten over Wellington.»
«I really have never bought into that San Francisco game, and maybe players might have a different view, ... My feeling coming out of that game, as heartbreaking as it was, was that I thought we were pretty good.»
