Gonzaga Great Dies: Former Gonzaga athletic director and coach Hank Anderson, 84, died earlier this month of an aortic aneurysm. In his first year as Gonzaga’s coach in 1951-52, he improved the team’s record by 11 wins. He is the winningest head coach in Gonzaga history with a 291-275 record over a 20 year career. Tired of Gonzaga’s Independent status, Anderson helped to create the Big Sky Conference in 1963. He left the Bulldogs in 1972 to become coach at Montana State, and he also worked as athletic director at Northern Arizona. Gonzaga left the Big Sky Conference in 1980 to join the West Coast Conference. [9/8/05]

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.”
