Boise Swaps With Spokane in 2009: Boise State will host first- and second-round NCAA tournament games in 2009 instead of 2010. Spokane will then host the games in 2010. Although Spokane was originally scheduled to host in 2009, the NCAA made the switch so Spokane would not have to host men’s or women’s NCAA Tournament games for three consecutive years. It will be the eighth time Boise State will host NCAA tournament games, with the most recent occurring in 2005. The school first hosted games in 1983. The other sites in 2009 are Philadelphia; Miami; Minneapolis; Kansas City, Mo.; Portland, Ore.; Greensboro, N.C.; and Dayton, Ohio. The Final Four will be at Detroit’s Ford Field. The 2010 Final Four will be in Indianapolis. [7/16/06]

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
