Harvard’s Recruiting Methods Under Revision: The Ivy League and Harvard will investigate the Crimson’s program after a New York Times story described how recruiting violations were commited by assistant coach Kenny Blakeney. Blakeney visited two Harvard recruits and played pickup games with them during times where recruting contacts were prohibited. One of the recruits said the incident occurred before Blakeney was officially hired on Harvard coach Tommy Amaker’s staff, but that would still be prohibited because he would have been considered a university representative. Most Ivy League coaches and athletic directors declined to comment. [3/07/08]

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
