Blue Devils to Retire Numbers 4 and 23: Duke fans who wax nostalgic when discussing the last four Blue Devil seasons will be happy to hear that the university plans to retire J.J. Redick’s No. 4 and Shelden Williams’ No. 23. The current NBA ballers will receive separate ceremonies this season. Redick finished his four-year career at Duke as the all-time leading scorer in ACC history. The offensively challenged Blue Devils clearly miss his production this season. Duke will hold Redick’s ceremony Jan. 28 vs. Boston College and Williams’ Feb. 4 vs. Florida State. [1/12/07]

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.”
