Tubby Smith Headed to Minnesota: Kentucky coach Tubby Smith has been hired as the new Minnesota coach. Smith was 22-12 this season and advanced to the NCAA tournament, but he has not won a championship since 1998. A struggling Minnesota program will get a much needed boost from Smith’s post season experience. Smith’s departure ends weak of speculation that the school might fire him. In the end, he left of his own accord. However, the rampant rumors likely did not encourage Smith to remain with the Wildcats much longer. [3/30/07]

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
