When Moegle showed up on Monterey's doorstep in 1959, he had not coached a single game and the team was the district's rag doll, never having won an area title. Having spent two years in the Army, he put faith in discipline to be the force that could change the school's fortunes. Moegle doesn't deny a single one of the tales of his muscle that have become legend among his players. It's been successful for me. I've got a good side and a tough side.
Nobody likes a strong discipline in their life.
But later they've always realized what I'm trying to do for them. I try to make these kids better people. Teach them a little about life. Life isn't always going to be a welfare situation where you can expect someone else to bail you out. Moegle's style has forged generations of grateful players.
