Huskers’ Collier Returns to Butler Home: Nebraska coach Barry Collier has left the school to become athletic director at Butler, his alma mater. In six seasons with the Cornhuskers, Collier led the team to an 89-91 record. He had much more success at Butler as a coach because he went 196-132 in 11 seasons. His 1999-2000 Bulldog team nearly beat Florida, before losing on a buzzer-beater. The Gators advanced to the national championship game that season, losing to Michigan State. Meanwhile, Nebraska is openly courting Creighton’s Dana Altman, who has made the Blue Jays the pre-eminent basketball program in the state of Nebraska, much to the chagrin of Cornhusker fans and alumni.

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
