PERRY ELLIS TO JOIN KU STAFF
Look for Perry Ellis to soon be named to KU’s basketball support staff, perhaps as soon as Friday.

Self acknowledged he’s been considering adding Ellis as one of the team’s video coordinators. A news release should be coming soon to report the hiring of Wichita native Ellis.

 

[cstrunk]

A very fashionable move.

 

[3TrueFans]

Adding someone with 75 years of basketball experience seems like a smart move, lots of knowledge in that old brain.

 

[ca4cy]

This is obviously a move to stave off any type of age discrimination accusations.

 

[CtownCyclone]

Wonder if Self will give Mr. Ellis the name of his toupee guy.

 

[Clonefan32]

Putting a guy who is still watching VHS in charge of your video editing is a bold move.

 

[JM4CY]

They will have to dust off the tape to show the new kids how good he used to be in his playing days.

 

[cycloner29]

Just wait til he suits up against us!! Swear he has like 2 years eligibility left.

 

[Sigmapolis]

I thought this was going to be an obituary.

 

[Remo Gaggi]

I think I have some Perry Ellis shirts in the closet ...

 

[cyowan]

I thought this was going to say he's been granted another 4 years of eligibility.

 

[Knownothing]

I loved it when Barry Stevens dunked on him, Then when Fizer dunked on him, then finished up his career when Cam Lard dunked on him.

 

[kentkel]

So, he came out of retirement to take this position? Will wonders never cease?!

 

[jbindm]

Good for him. It's never too late in life to start a new career.

 

[isufbcurt]

So, he came out of retirement to take this position? Will wonders never cease?!

Walmart greeter just wasn't fulfilling enough

 

[MeanDean]

So about 2 years to work and then forced retirement due to age?

 

[JRE1975]

He must have a kid they are going to recruit

 

[coolerifyoudid]

KU must be recruiting his great grandson.

Suggestions for thread title. I'll start:

'Perry Ellis takes KU coaching position'.

If a thread title says what the thread is about, then it helps us know what the thread is about.

Thought we were sending our well-wishes on his 100th birthday.
