More Bad Luck for Orange Point Guards: Syracuse seems to have a curse hanging over its head when it comes to potential star point guards. First, Billy Edelin went through personal issues, left the program, then returned but was academically ineligible. Now, incoming point guard Emmanuel “Tiki” Mayben may not play for the Orange anytime soon because his academic record does not meet NCAA standards for recruits. He must raise his SAT score to meet an NCAA standard that combines recruits’ high school GPAs with their SAT scores. Syracuse officials have told Mayben that he should consider attending a prep school for a year if he cannot raise his academic standing. [7/02/05]

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
