Were you expecting Michael Jordan to say something other than "win"? Good to note that Mack Brown answered back; The ceiling is now the roof.

00:00I saw him, I was laughing with him, and I said,
00:03so why did you give Jordan Brand shoes to Florida
00:06and Oklahoma and Michigan?
00:10Why didn't you just give them to us?
00:12He said, why don't you start winning some games
00:14at my school, and then we'll talk.
00:16My school's won less games than those others, man.
00:19We need to start winning.
00:20And I said, I got it.
00:21So you can see how competitive he really is.
00:25But I've loved watching the documentary
00:28just because he competes so hard.
00:30So I actually talked at length this morning with our staff
00:35about that's what we're trying to capture.
00:37Throw the ability out.
00:39He has freakish ability.
00:42But a lot of guys have freakish ability
00:44that don't compete like that.
00:46And what made his fire burn like that?
00:48Why did he compete so hard?
00:50Why did he always look for that edge?
00:53And that's what we've got to convince our players to do
00:57and try to recruit the guy
00:59that's got the competitive spirit like Michael Jordan.
01:02And that's what all of us are looking for.
01:06And again, you can't always find that type athlete,
01:09but if you can find that spirit,
01:10find that competitive nature, then you're going to be okay.
