Baylor Is Back in Business: After 307 days since Baylor lost in last season’s Big 12 tournament, the Bears played their first game of the season last night. Not surprisingly, the inexperienced Bears lost at Texas Tech, 79-61. The team demonstrated several major weaknesses, including poor rebounding and court awareness. But considering Baylor endured a ban on non-conference games, coach Scott Drew and the rest of the team were mostly happy to finally play a real game this season. The ban was a product of violations that occurred during the tenure of former coach David Bliss, who tried to cover up the program’s troubles, which became public after the murder of Patrick Dennehy by teammate Carlton Dotson.

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
