ESPN Keeps Its Coach: Despite overtures from Marquette and coach Tom Crean, ESPN analyst and former coach Fran Fraschilla declined an opportunity to join Crean’s staff as an assistant coach. Crean had courted Fraschilla, a personal friend, to replace Jeff Strohm and help the Golden Eagles make the transition from Conference USA to the Big East. But ESPN pushed to keep Fraschilla, one of the network’s more seasoned analysts. Fraschilla had been an NCAA coach for more than 20 years as head coach at Manhattan, St. John’s and New Mexico.

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.”
