Pittsburgh Officials Reduce Fields’ Charges: He’s not clear of the law yet, but Pittsburgh point guard Levance Fields is not in as much trouble as he first appeared to be after a nightclub incident in September. Prosecutors will only charge with Fields with simple assault and drop the charges of disarming a police officer, public drunkenness and aggravated assault. Fields is on probation for nine months and must complete 50 hours of community service. Police reports indicate that Fields knocked over an officer and reached for his gun before the officer’s partner subdued Fields with a Taser. Coach Jamie Dixon is waiting for Fields’ legal dealings to end before deciding whether to suspend the team’s starting point guard. Fields averaged 9.2 points and 4.6 assists per game last 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
