Walsh to Land Further South: After staying in the NBA Draft without a first round guarantee, then going undrafted, former Florida Gator Matt Walsh is expected to sign a two-year contract with the Miami Heat. Walsh led the Gators in three-point shooting last season at 42.6 percent and was second on the team in scoring at 14.6 points per game, and thought he could be a first round pick. Walsh seemed happy about the deal, especially with who one of his teammates will be, as he commented to the Associated Press, “I’m going to be a teammate with Shaq. Thinking about that is crazy. It’s a dream come true.” [7/15/05]

-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.”
