Feeding the Fire of Duke Conspiracy Theorists: When you’re an established program like Duke, people tend to either love you or hate you. Well, the haters have more newspaper clippings to file in the notebook labeled “Duke Conspiracy.” The ACC has suspended the referees who worked the Duke vs. Florida State game in Durham Saturday because they should not have called a technical foul on Seminole forward Alexander Johnson. The junior was called for an intentional foul for slamming Duke senior forward Shelden Williams. Williams hopped into Johnson’s face, and the Seminole appeared to dodge the confrontation. The referees gave both players technical fouls, which was Johnson’s fifth. The admitted bad call comes after a generally perceived missed call toward the end of Duke’s tight win at Boston College.

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
