How to use coach in a sentence?

1. Colton Haab:

   That’s Coach Feis. He wants to make sure everybody is safe before himself.

2. Benard Keter:

   When I came, I had no relatives. I had nobody to say, ‘Hey, it’s hard here.’ … It wasn’t like that, so I was like, I have to pick myself up and do everything I can. Go to class. If I had any issues, I would go to my coach.

3. Ron Rivera:

   There are certain things that pop up all of a sudden, side effects that you have: the fatigue, how tired you get; at times you get nauseous; honestly at times sometimes your equilibrium is messed with, almost a sense of vertigo, then the nausea. It hits you at any time, anywhere. (And) the fatigue and going out to practice and stuff, it limited me, and that really bothers me because I can’t really coach the way I coach.

4. Stephanie Ready:

   I can't speak to it exactly, because I've never lived that exact life, but I've been hearing that criticism since I was coaching. There are plenty of examples of head coaches, present and past, that did not play in the NBA -- that did not even play in college, some of them. You work your way up from being a college manager to an NBA head coach, and if you happen to be a man, no one questions that path.

5. Barry Switzer:

   It was the right thing to do, so when I became head coach, I said, ‘You need to understand that this is the way it’s going to be.’ I told my staff that’s the way we’re going to approach it, and you’re coaching for the wrong staff if you don’t want to do it my way.
