Comments about ‘Utah State Hall of Famer Perry dies’

"Max the Magician" has already gone down as one of the very best point guards in Utah State University basketball history. This was proven by his 2008 induction into the USU Athletics Hall of Fame. The Aggie nation sends our deepest condolences to his wonderful family. We will miss you Max!

I am Max Perrys youngest sister. I cannot tell you how much it means to my two sisters and our mom that
Max is so well remembered at Utah State. Playing bsketball and coaching was his life for so many years.
We love him and miss him so very much, and we love the state of Utah.
Thank you so very much.

When I got the news today, I was stunned. Someone I thought of as invincable, has passed. Not only was Max Perry a great basketball player, he was a great father, neighbor, teacher and coach. He will long be remembered by many Southwestern Rebels. I last saw Him & his wife in 1996 at a reunion for the SW class of 1980 when I flew up from Florida to see Larry Kirkendohl one last time. My condolences to His wife Monaei and sons Max Jr & Marty, he was a great man.

I had the pleasure of working out in the Utah State Fieldhouse with Max Perry as I had considered the opportunity of attending Utah State University.
I recall vividly the great talent this little guy had.It is peculiar how a
memory bank works, as I was sitting in my office surfing the internet and I
entered the name of Max Perry.What appeared on the screen was the news
Max Perry had passed on, and so it is with people and memories.
I am reminded of the old cliche, "The size of the dog in the fight is less
important than the size of the fight in the dog" I really didn't know you well Max but am inclined to say so long Max, and God Speed.
