Texas Tech Center Gets Unusual Extra Eligibility: Texas Tech fifth-year senior Esmir Rizvic received another half-year of eligibility from the NCAA because he missed the second half of last season with a fractured face. The NCAA usually only grants an entire year of eligibility, not fractions. The association made an exception for Rizvic because of the severity and nature of the injury. Rizvic was injured in a game against Oklahoma in which Longar Longar elbowed Rizvic in the eye socket and was called for an intentional foul. Rizvic can play in either the first or second half of this coming season, and the team will likely choose the latter. [8/14/07]

Former college basketball coach Mike Jarvis is back with a new book, The Seven C's 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.”
