Sampson and Indiana Part Ways: Indiana and coach Kelvin Sampson have reached a settlement that will pay Sampson $750,000 and end his tenure as the Hoosiers’ coach. In his second season with the team, Sampson has run afoul of NCAA recruiting rules. In response, Sampson agreed to resign for the $750,000 buyout of his contract. An anonymous donor provided $550,000 of the sum. In Sampson’s place, assistant coach Dan Dakich will lead the team. The NCAA outlined in a report released last week the impermissible phone calls to recruits made by Sampson and his staff. In addition, Sampson and his staff inhibited the NCAA’s investigation by lying. [2/22/08]

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.”
-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
