"ENERGETIC. PASSIONATE. DRIVEN. WINNER - These are words often used to describe Texas Wesleyan Coach basketball coach Terry Waldrop. I have known Terry for eight years and he has been a great mentor during my short coaching career. He has helped me with my confidence to handle any situation in my career."

- Byron Rimm II, Head Men's Basketball Prairie View A&M University

"There are two things that have always impressed me about Terry (Waldrop). First is how much he cares about his team. He gets up in the morning thinking about what he can do for them as players and as people. And once you play for Terry he's always in your corner working for you. Second, is his drive to work on his craft. Nothing inspires me more than a good coach looking to get better and that's Terry."

- Bob Starkey, Associate Head Women's Basketball Coach- LSU
 

"My relationship with Coach T goes beyond the regular "player-coach" relationship. I consider him like a big brother to me. He is a big part of the reason why I graduated from college, played in the NBA, and have a great career in the best league in Europe (Spain). As a foreign student learning English for the first time, every night he would work with me. He took me under his wing, not only as a coach, but as a tutor and mentor. Coach T's daily lessons have become lesson's for a lifetime, and I am grateful to call him my friend."

- Ruben Garces - Golden State Warriors, Phoenix Suns

"I have known Coach Waldrop since his outstanding days as a high school coach in Louisiana. I've always felt he would be a superstar in college coaching-that's why I encouraged him to get in the college game. Terry has already accomplished what the rest of us coaches are trying to do-win a National Championship. We are proud to have Terry coaching the state of Texas. I'm just glad I don't have to play his team!"

- Thomas Schuberth - Head Coach, Paris JC

"Coach Waldrop's winning percentage, conference championships, national championship, and graduation rate are all known, and undisputable. Very few in our profession have coached at the levels he has had, and had the level of success he has had at each stop along the way. What the numbers don't tell you, which is most important, is the character he has! He is far more concerned with the person off the floor and in the classroom, than he is the player on the floor, and that is why his success is annual, because the relationships he has are lifelong.

- Brent "Buzz" Williams - Head Coach, Marquette University

"Coach Waldrop has done an amazing job over at Texas Wesleyan. He has already won a National Championship, and every year he has a team that can compete with just about anybody in the country. He gets the most out of each and every one of his players, and it is obvious that his players love to play him. I am confident that it won't be long before the Texas Wesleyan Rams win their second National Championship under Coach Waldrop."

- Scott Cross - Head Coach, UT-Arlington

"Terry Waldrop has experienced tremendous success at Texas Wesleyan University over the years. His teams always play hard and are well coached. You don’t become a National Champion or the winningest coach in school history without knowledge and work ethic. Terry has always been passionate about our game and young people since his days at Northeast Louisiana University."

- Bob Marlin - Head Coach, Sam Houston State University
