Pierce Wants State Aid: Former Iowa Hawkeye Pierre Pierce has asked the state to pick up some of his legal costs as he defends charges of assaulting his girlfriend last year. The native of Westmont, Ill. filed an affidavit in Dallas County District Court claiming that he is living on $170 a month, but his family has privately retained defense attorney Alfredo Parrish, which poses an obstacle. Assistant Attorney General A. Patricia Houlihan noted this in asking the judge to carefully review the request. Pierce is scheduled to stand trial August 16, and has been preparing for the June 28 NBA Draft. [6/17/05]

"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
