Purdue Backcourt Woes Continue: Purdue seemingly had depth at point guard after the arrival of a strong recruiting class and the addition of JuCo point guard Tarrance Crump. But behavioral concerns may force coach Matt Painter to go with an unknown quantity at the important spot. Crump is out after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor drunken driving charge in which he also struck a Purdue student and fled the scene of the accident. Freshman sensation Korey Spates, meanwhile, is the latest point guard to receive a suspension. Painter suspended Spates indefinitely for on-court issues. Because Spates’ suspension is more ambiguous than Crump’s, he could be back in the lineup sooner rather than later. If not, then Painter will start freshman Bryant Dillon. [11/08/05]

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.”
-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
