Olson Condemns ‘Vicious, Vicious Rumor’: Arizona coach Lute Olson dismissed speculations that he has Parkinson’s disease as an untrue and a “vicious, vicious rumor” during his weekly news conference Tuesday. He said he heard the rumors, which apparently started after people noticed Olson’s hands shake, a couple of weeks ago and was asked about it in his radio show. He responded by pointing out he has physicals like everyone else and that he could even get his physician to make a statement if that wasn’t enough. Olson, 72, has a 587-186 record in 24 years at Arizona. He’s also a member of the basketball Hall of Fame. [3/01/07]

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
