Another Thompson Son Joins the Coaching Ranks: Usually, coaching family trees refer to a famed head coach’s assistants landing jobs at other schools. But former Georgetown coach John Thompson is literally spreading his roots throughout the college game. Arkansas assistant coach Ronny Thompson is the new coach of the Ball State Cardinals. He joins his brother, Georgetown’s John Thompson III, among the head coaching ranks. Ronny moves to the Cardinals after working under Stan Heath for three seasons. [4/05/06]

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
