Howard Dismissed For Gesture: Alabama State head coach Lewis Jackson has announced that reserve forward Earl Howard has been dismissed from the Hornets squad for making an obscene gesture on television. With three minutes remaining in the SWAC Championship game on March 13th against Alabama A&M, Howard was televised on ESPN2 making an obscene gesture into a camera. Then head coach Rob Spivery and his staff had no knowledge of Howard’s action when he was inserted into the game after making the gesture. Alabama State has issued an apology to its alumni and fans, as well as to the SWAC, Alabama A&M, and the national viewing audience. [9/5/05]

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.”
