Aggies Lasso New Logo: As part of a larger marketing campaign, New Mexico State will unveil a new mascot this fall – Pete. The mascot, plain ol’ Pete, replaces Pistol Pete because school officials decided to remove the firearm in favor of a lasso. The mascot formerly known as Pistol Pete – surprise, surprise – featured a cowboy holding a pistol. Officials said they did not make the change because of public pressure to remove the weapon from products but rather because the new image looked best among a number of proposed designs. The school also opted to only use crimson and white on sports uniforms, eliminating all black trim.

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
