California Hires Montgomery: California figured that if Mike Montgomery could help Stanford dominate the Golden Bears for much of 18-year run with the Cardinal, he might be able to return the favor against Cal’s biggest rival as the Bears’ coach. Cal will announce Montgomery as the Bears’ replacement for Ben Braun, whose 12-year tenure ended after this past season. The Golden Bears had plenty of talent but couldn’t crack the Pac-10’s top eight. Montgomery has a 547-244 record as a college coach. He left the Cardinal in 2004 to coach the Golden State Warriors, who fired him in 2006. [4/05/08]

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
