Mark Phelps to Take Over at Drake: Mark Phelps, an assistant coach at Arizona State, has been named the new head coach at Drake. Phelps was hired less than a week after former Drake coach Keno Davis left for Providence. Phelps, a longtime assistant to Herb Sendek, has big shoes to fill. Davis, a first-year coach, earned the Bulldogs their first NCAA Tournament entry since 1971, went 28-5 and won both the Missouri Valley Conference regular season and tournament titles.

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
