Trojans Appeal Dry Arena: Arkansas – Little Rock will find a way to serve alcohol to its fans if the school gets its way. But for now, the state’s Alcohol Beverage Control has denied the school a liquor permit for its new basketball arena, the Stephens Center. Several groups oppose the proposition of serving alcohol at an on-campus arena. But Arkansas – Little Rock officials contend that the school’s demographics defy stereotypes of alcohol-craving, irresponsible youths causing ruckus. The average Trojan student is 28 years old, and the average season-ticket holder is 50 years old – not exactly newbies to the taste of spirits. The ABC board could address the school’s appeal at its next meeting Nov. 22.

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
