Cats Kick Out Rodgers: Arizona coach Lute Olson has dismissed senior guard Chris Rodgers, potentially ending his career at the college level. Olson did not offer a specific reason for Rodgers’ removal, but he had said that he would evaluate all his players to solve some chemistry problems. Rodgers also has complained recently about his role. He wanted more minutes and an opportunity to lead the team to victory. The Wildcats have lost three of their last four. Rodgers averages 10.8 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.5 steals per game. Without Rodgers, Arizona’s defense takes a hit, which could spell trouble for the rest of the season in the Pac-10. The conference is more balanced than it has been in past years. [1/19/06]

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
