Eagles Suspend Pair: Boston College suspended juniors Sean Williams and Akida McLain for a violation of team rules prior to Sunday’s exhibition game against St. Francis Xavier. Both were on the bench in street clothes during the game. Williams will miss the first two regular season games, while McLain will miss at least the first nine. McLain’s could end right after the first semester, which could mean that academics are the reason for his suspension. It certainly hurts the frontcourt of the Eagles, as both are expected to play key roles this season. Williams ranked third in the ACC in blocked shots last season, while McLain figured to be in the mix to start. The Eagles open their season on Friday against New Hampshire. [11/05/06]

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.”
