Big East Rewards Tranghese: For turning the Big East into a superconference, the chief executive officers of the conference’s 16 members agreed to extend commissioner Michael Tranghese’s contract through 2010. At the conference’s Presidents Meeting in Philadelphia, the CEOs rewarded Tranghese, who has guided the Big East through a whirlwind of expansion in the NCAA. The conference lost Miami, Virginia Tech and Boston College to the ACC during the past couple of seasons. But in their place, Tranghese brought in Cincinnati, DePaul, Louisville, Marquette and South Florida. If that doesn’t produce a basketball lovers’ paradise, what does? [11/03/05]

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.”
