Tough Love from Stansbury: Mississippi State coach Rick Stansbury wants rising sophomore forward Walter Sharpe to return to Starkville. But he questions Sharpe’s desire after he repeatedly showed up late to games and practices last season. Sharpe announced his intention to transfer in the spring then changed his mind. Now, Sharpe is at a junior college taking summer classes to improve his academic standing. Once those classes end, Sharpe and Stansbury will meet again to re-evaluate Sharpe’s status for a return to Mississippi State. The coach said he likes the kid and hopes the recent troubles will help him mature. Sharpe averaged 2.4 points and 1.9 rebounds per game last season, playing in nearly every game.

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
