We knew it was only a matter of time before this started happening. Today is a huge day for Wichita Heights junior-to-be Perry Ellis. He's already been offered a slew of scholarships from the Division 1 level and today he may pick up a few more.
Tonight a plethora of college coaches and assistants will be in town to watch Perry work out. It's a closed door session of course. Here's a quick list of teams and coaches we know will be around:
Kansas, Bill Self
Kansas State, Frank Martin
Kentucky, John Calipari
Louisville, possibly Rick Pitino
Wichita State, Gregg Marshall
Stanford, Johnny Dawkins
Texas A&M, assistant
Memphis, assistant
That's a pretty impressive list. Especially considering Perry has already gotten offers from at least 5 of those schools.
The best part about this is it couldn't happen to a better kid. Every time I've interviewed Perry, or talked with his parents, or asked his teammates and friends about him, all they've ever been is positive. I understand Perry has excellent grades and he's extremely humble about his game. Very happy for him. And I must say, I'm getting anxious about these guys coming in, can you imagine what Perry must be feeling right now?
