Neither the NBA Nor Auburn: Rising sophomore guard Toney Douglas will not remain eligible for the NBA Draft, withdrawing his name from the list of early entrants who could be drafted later this month. Douglas did not receive positive enough feedback from NBA scouts to forgo the remainder of this collegiate eligibility. But Douglas won’t return to Auburn, either. The Tigers released Douglas from his scholarship on the condition that he transfers to a school outside the SEC. In one season at Auburn, Douglas averaged 16.9 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game. His dad said coach Jeff Lebo played Douglas out of position, however, because Douglas is better suited to play point guard, especially in the NBA. [6/14/05]

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
