Restocking the Herd: Although Marshall will lose two players who averaged nearly 15 points per game last season, the belated arrival of Darryl Merthie will soften the blow. Coach Ron Jirsa recruited Merthie to join the Thundering Herd last season, but the Florida standout was academically ineligible. He’s good to go now, and Jirsa wants him to play ball all summer to refine his game. JuCo transfer Chris Williams and incoming freshman Tyler Wilkerson also figure to play important roles for the Herd next season, and their preparation will begin this summer as Marshall opens its summer sessions.

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
