Report: Kansas Athletic Director Lew Perkins Resigning At The End Of The 2010-2011 School Year

I knew this was a possibility. We all knew it was a possibility but it's still surprising.

With the end of the Big-12 rapidly approaching, we receive word that Lew Perkins is resigning at the end of the year.

Wow.

Kansas Athletic Director Lew Perkins is set to resign from Kansas University effective with the end of the 2010-2011 school years, sources have told the Lawrence Journal-World and KUsports.com.

The embattled athletic director has plenty of reasons to re-sign, including:

  • Mark Mangino situation
  • Ticket scandal
  • Blackmail case (Perkins was later cleared of any wrongdoing)

We'll have much more on this as it develops. Stay tuned to SB Nation's Rock Chalk Talk.
