Evening Madness!: The NCAA board of directors has approved a measure to move up the first practice for the 2005-06 season to be October 14th at 7 p.m. local time, thus doing away with the traditional Midnight Madness clock-watching. The measure, sponsored by the Pac-10, ensures that fans and players alike can get home at a reasonable hour, and it allows coaches to not waste a day and actually practice, instead of recovering from an event that ends at 2 a.m. Another key change passed was to allow players to play in exhibitions and still redshirt prior to the start of the regular season.

The Seven C’s of Leadership
Former college basketball coach Mike Jarvis is back with a new book, The Seven C's of Leadership.
"Every one of us has leadership within us and this book offers fascinating principals that work in any setting—from the locker room to the executive board room. In The Seven C's of Leadership, Coach Jarvis lays out the essential ingredients of leadership."
-Jay Wright, NCAA Championship Men’s Basketball Coach, Villanova University
"At a time in America when we are witnessing an epidemic of opioid addictions and deaths, along with suicides, we need Coach Jarvis' Seven C's of Leadership – grounded in the power of Christ alone where we should all make our stand.”
-Lietenant Colonel Allen B. West (U.S. Army, Retired), Bronze Star recipient, and Member 112th U.S. Congress
"The Seven C's of Leadership is a slam dunk! Coach Jarvis has always been an outstanding leader because he has the ability to decipher what true leadership really means.”
-Dale Brown, Head Men’s Basketball Coach, LSU, 1972-1997, Member of the College Basketball Hall of Fame, and Shaquille O’Neal’s college coach
