Oregon Apologizes for Foul Ducks: Oregon officials have apologized to UCLA, freshman center Kevin Love and his family for inappropriate behavior by the university’s fans last week during the Ducks’ 80-75 loss to the Bruins. Oregon fans apparently have not forgiven Love for leaving the state to attend Pac-10 rival UCLA, and they hurled homophobic insults at Love and his family, who attended the game. Love’s father played for the Ducks in the 1970s. UCLA coach Ben Howland and Love said they appreciated the gestures by Oregon officials. [1/29/08]

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.”
