Eagles’ Shot Blocker Swatted From Team: Boston College has dismissed shot-blocker extraordinaire Sean Williams and teammate Akida McLain. Coach Al Skinner refused to offer details about their dismissal, but he said the dismissals came after the players violated a team rule. Williams averages 12.1 points, 6.9 rebounds and five blocks per game — the latter statistic is good for third in Division I. McLain averages two points and 1.5 rebounds per game for the Eagles. Both players received suspensions earlier in the season, so Skinner has demonstrated consistent disciplinary force when his players act unruly. (Analysis) [1/17/07]

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.”
-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
