Mensah Pays for New Chance: Former Siena guard Kojo Mensah is free to eventually play for Duquesne, where he has enrolled and will pay for his own education this school year. Siena refused to release Mensah from his scholarship, even though he had considered transferring following a coaching change last year. Rather than hang around for free, Mensah has decided he’s better off paying to be at the school of his choice — which is Duquesne, coached by Ron Everhart. For those who have followed this situation, the outcome is not surprising because Duquesne was the logical choice for Mensah. He will join his former high school and AAU teammate Shawn James, who followed Everhart from Northeastern to Duquesne. Mensah will join the team for the 2007-08 season and will have two years of eligibility remaining. [9/03/06]

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
