Richardson vs. America?: Although former Arkansas coach Nolan Richardson lost in his last court appearance – a lengthy trial in which he claimed wrongful termination and accused Razorback officials of racism – he may soon get to take on the entire country. Panamanian Basketball Federation officials are considering hiring Richardson, but the deal is not final, despite reports that he will coach the team in the Bolivarian Games. A Panama basketball official said Enrique Grenald is leading the team for now, but the country would like to hire Richardson, if they can afford him. Richardson said he only expects enough compensation to cover living expenses. If Richardson becomes coach of Panama’s team, he would lead the squad in the Tournament of the Americas, which starts Aug. 24. Panama is in the same group as the United States. [8/3/05]

Former college basketball coach Mike Jarvis is back with a new book, The Seven C's 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.”
