Skinner to Remain at The Heights a Little Longer: Boston College head coach Al Skinner has received a contract extension that will keep him at the school through the 2012-13 season. In 10 seasons, Skinner has a 196-120 record as the Eagles’ coach and has led them to the NCAA Tournament six times, including the last four seasons, marking the first such run in program history. The program has particularly taken off over the past seven seasons as the Eagles have won 164 games in that time, the highest seven-year win total in the program’s history. [9/04/07]

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
