Big Ten to Choose Tournament Home: The Big Ten Tournament will permanently reside in either Chicago or Indianapolis, depending on which site conference officials like best. After the Big Ten initiated a conference tournament in 1998, Chicago hosted it for the first four years. But the two cities have alternated as hosts since 2002. Both cities have their virtues and vices. Chicago is a huge town with a bigger facility, but that size also means that fans must travel within the city to get from one place to another. Indianapolis is a smaller market with a slightly smaller stadium, but the central downtown location allows fans to walk to restaurants, bars and the stadium from hotels. Conference officials will probably issue a decision in the spring.

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
