Hunter Goes Shoeless to Raise Awareness: IUPUI coach Ron Hunter paced the Jaguars’ sidelines without shoes during IUPUI’s 82-69 win against Oakland Thursday to raise awareness for needy African children. Working with Samaritan’s Feet, a Charlotte-based charity, Hunter is collecting 40,000 pairs of shoes to send to children in Africa. Hunter witnessed African poverty when he traveled to Nigeria for a recruiting trip in 2004. As of now, he has more than 30,000 pairs of shoes and hopes to complete the shoe drive by this summer.

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
