Northeastern State to Drop Nickname: To comply with an NCAA ruling on “hostile or abusive nicknames,” Northeastern State University has decided to drop its Redmen nickname. The school informed the NCAA of its decision Sept. 29 and will begin considering more than 400 suggestions for a new nickname. Neal Weaver, vice president for university relations, said finalists will be announced next week, and by May 2007, a new name, logo and mascot will take effect. Weaver said the reason the school won’t change nicknames any sooner is because several teams are competing as the Redmen, and they don’t want to force them to change in the middle of the season.

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
