Sutton Gets Win No. 800: It may be with an unexpected team, but Eddie Sutton got his 800th career win when San Fransisco came back to beat Pepperdine 85-82. Sutton, who retired from Oklahoma State a little less than two years ago after a drunk driving arrest, got his 800th victory on the fourth attempt when Danny Cavic hit a three-pointer with 14.9 seconds left. Sutton joins Bob Knight, Dean Smith, Jim Phelan and Adloph Rupp as coaches with 800 wins. Sutton has coached at Creighton, Arkansas, Kentucky and Oklahoma State in addition to San Fransisco. He has won more than 71 percent of his games and been to three Final Fours. The next coach to 800 wins seems likely to be Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski.

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
