Not A Greater Team, But A Greater Force

UNC's mission is not just to defeat its opponents, but to relentlessly sap their will until they can seize on an opportunity to break them.  "My greatest thrill during games is the understanding that every team that leaves the field against us knows they were beaten by a greater force.  No, not a better team.  They ran into a force.  They found the center of our chest and it was hard and they couldn't knock us down.  So when you're tackling out there today, I want you to throw your body at the girl with such a clattering of bones and gristle that she'll be worried about having a scar from her kneecap to her ankle.  I want her wondering, 'If I finish this game, will I ever be able to wear a skirt again?'"

Pg 103 The Man Watching
