Donovan Shuts Gators Out of Practice Facility: Feeling like his team has become complacent, Florida coach Billy Donovan has locked his team out of the O’Connell Center and banned them from wearing Florida gear until they demonstrate they are ready to represent the Gators. Donovan said some of the players seem to expect things to come easily after the Gators won two consecutive national championships. But Florida struggled this season, losing eight of 11 games to end the season outside the NCAA Tournament. The Gators will play in the NIT, starting tonight against San Diego State. [3/19/08]

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
