Bennett Likely to Announce Retirement: Washington State officials will hold a press conference Tuesday, and coach Dick Bennett will likely announce his intention to retire at the end of the season. His son Tony will become head coach as the elder Bennett chose Tony to be his successor a while ago. Bennett has been the Cougars’ coach since 2003 and has helped the team become competitive in the Pac-10. Bennett has 490 wins in his career, which includes stops at Wisconsin – Stevens Point, Wisconsin – Green Bay, Wisconsin and Washington State. The Cougars are 11-14 overall and 4-12 in Pac-10 play. Washington State likely won’t play in the NIT and will only reach the post-season if they win the Pac-10 Tournament. [2/27/06]

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
