Murphy Joins Northeastern Staff: Thomas Murphy, who coached for 34 years at Hamilton College in New York, has been named an assistant coach at Northeastern. Bill Coen, Northeastern’s coach, played for Murphy at Hamilton, as did Northeastern assistant Jim McCarthy. Coen was one of Murphy’s first recruits at Hamilton and gave Coen his first coaching job. Coen is more than happy to return the favor. In his 34 years at Hamilton, Murphy assembled a 602-263 record, led the Continentals to 30 postseason appearances, and was National Coach of the Year in 1979. He also served as the school’s athletic director for 23 years. [9/19/06]

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
