Agent Drops Mayo Amid Recruiting Allegations: Bill Duffy Associates and agent Calvin Andrews have dropped USC freshman O.J. Mayo from the firm’s roster of athletes as allegations swirl that Mayo received gifts and money from BDA Sports funneled through an events promoter. Mayo is a likely top five pick in the NBA Draft, with some projections having him going as high as No. 2 to Miami. Bill Duffy Associates said they want Mayo to enjoy the NBA Draft process rather than having to address the potential scandal about improper gifts while in school. The firm also asked the NBA Players Association to waive the 15-day period that prevents another agent from signing Mayo. [5/23/08]

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
