?Coach Richard Bell
"WELL, IF I wasn't coaching in college right now, I'd

' athletes," Bell relates. "These men are people of
significance, worth and value and I really want to treat them
like that. My job is to get the maximum potential out of them
and 1 don't ever want to shortchange them as coach.

just for football, but for life. And that is Richard Bell's main
