Ralph Graves: Coach Malcolm Gale

Quotes 

• Coach Malcolm Gale : Must have been quite a guy, Nathan Hale. You know, they've turned out some pretty good men here. Men like this. Who sort of had an idea that maybe there was something bigger than themselves. I don't know. Their country. Maybe, their college.

• Coach Malcolm Gale : You could have a lot of fun here if you'd just give this place a chance. I hate to see anybody miss out on what this joint can give them. I don't mean from books. The real stuff you get here doesn't come from books. Doggone it, Amatto, here you are with what ought to be four swell years. The happiest years of your life. Friendships. Fun. You have fun after college; but, it isn't the same. I don't know. I love this darn place!

• Coach Malcolm Gale : [notices Tony's black eye]  Let me see that eye. Boy, that's a lollapaloozer!

• Coach Malcolm Gale : I'll tell you what I think of this team. There's a fellow going to start the game tomorrow. He doesn't know anything about it. But, he represents exactly the spirit of this team. At the beginning of the year I put him with the the scrubs. I kept him with the scrubs. And he played hard football. He played clean football. And, by golly, he just wouldn't be licked!

• Coach Malcolm Gale : By golly, we're not going to be licked!

• Coach Malcolm Gale : I know it's tough to get out there again. You're in for a licking!

• Coach Malcolm Gale : He doesn't want to be a hero. He just wants to be one of the gang.
