  • ... that after each loss, football coach Art Haege made his players crawl from the locker room to the practice field, saying "if you played like a worm, you crawled like a worm"? Source: Witosky, Tom (August 5, 1997). "For Stormers' Haege, coaching is art form". The Des Moines Register. p. 23 – via Newspapers.com. ("For a week following a loss, he would make his players crawl from the locker room to the practice field and back. 'If you played like a worm, you crawled like a worm,' Haege said.")
    • ALT1: ... that when a player quit due to not liking Art Haege's style of coaching, Haege said he could leave–but only if he did it in his underwear? Source: Witosky, Tom (August 5, 1997). "For Stormers' Haege, coaching is art form". The Des Moines Register. p. 23 – via Newspapers.com. ("Then there was the time when Haege was coaching high school football and a player decided he'd had enough of Haege's drill seargant approach to practice. 'That's fine,' Haege said. 'But first take off your uniform. You don't deserve to wear this school's colors.' Frank Haege, who was the team's waterboy at the time, watched the young man take off his jersey, shoulder pads and even his T-shirt. 'Then my dad tells him to take off his shoes, socks and pants,' Frank Haege said. 'The tough thing was that the locker room was a full two city blocks away from the practice field. That poor guy had to run the distance in his underpants.'")
    • ALT2: ... that football coach Art Haege openly acknowledged that he had "violated NCAA recruiting rules, cheated during games, drank too much booze and picked more than his fair share of fights"? Source: Witosky, Tom (August 5, 1997). "For Stormers' Haege, coaching is art form". The Des Moines Register. p. 23 – via Newspapers.com. (a quote from the fifth paragraph of the article)

    • ALT4: ... that football coach Art Haege called sportsmanship "crap" and hand shaking "b.s."? Source: DeVrieze, Craig (April 19, 2001). "Haeges driven to succeed". Quad-City Times. p. 29, 34 – via Newspapers.com. ("You think winning isn't everything to Art Haege? Consider what he considers a Hallmark moment with a teen-aged Frank. That was when the kid left the court after a crushing loss in his last high school basketball game while his teammates remained on the floor to watch the victors cut down the nets. Confronted by fellow parents who were bothered by what they considered his son's display of poor sportsmanship, Art's reply, rest assured, was succinct. And unprintable. 'I'm glad Frank walked off the floor,' the 63-year-old coach says now: 'I don't believe in that sportsmanship crap. And I don't believe in that hand shaking b.s. we do before and after games.'")
