Grant Cashes In on Gator Fortunes: Florida assistant coach Anthony Grant has left the defending national champions to accept his first head coaching position at Virginia Commonwealth. VCU targeted Grant from the moment former coach Jeff Capel left the program to lead Oklahoma. Grant has been an assistant to Florida coach Billy Donovan for the past 12 seasons. He will bring Florida’s fast-paced style to VCU, which has a strong foundation after Capel helped rebuild the program in his four years at the school. Grant’s hire completes one revolution of the coaching carousel that involved Indiana, Oklahoma, VCU and now a Florida assistant. [4/19/06]

Former college basketball coach Mike Jarvis is back with a new book, The Seven C's 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
