Sadler’s Outreach Pays Off: Nebraska coach Doc Sadler has made an instant impression on his players, even though a couple of them had planned to leave the school after former coach Barry Collier left to become Butler’s athletic director. Sadler visited his two returning leading scorers from last season — Aleks Maric and Jamel White — to alleviate their fears and convince them to remain in Lincoln. Sadler traveled to Australia to talk to Maric and his family and then stopped by Brooklyn to chat with White. The two combined to average 19.6 points per game for the Huskers last season. And because of Sadler’s international journey, those two will have an opportunity to lead the Huskers this season. [8/21/06]

-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
