  Clemson university

  Jan 1979 - Jan 1982

  Wide receiver

  A few days before the 1982 Hula Bowl, Clemson wide receiver Perry Tuttle was basking in the Hawaiian sun and the glow of the Clemson Tigers' recent national-championship-clinching win over Nebraska in the Orange Bowl when USC running back Marcus Allen threw a magazine on Tuttle's lap and said, "I can't believe a country boy from Clemson would be on the cover of Sports Illustrated." Tuttle, a senior All-America from Lexington, N.C., had made the cover by catching the game-winning touchdown pass in the Tigers' 22-15 victory over the Cornhuskers. That win completed a 12-0 season for Clemson and established Tuttle as a hero forever to the Tigers faithful, hundreds of whom sent him copies of the issue to autograph.Perry will always be remembered for the game winning catch during the 1982 Orange Bowl. While at Clemson, Perry was All-Conference and All American in football and remains the only Clemson athlete to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated.Perry is a member of the Clemson Hall of Fame, and left the school as the career leader in receptions and reception yards. In 1999, a panel of historians ranked Tuttle as number 14 on Clemson's list of all-time top 25 players and is on the Clemson Centennial team.To preserve the memories of his college career for his children, Perry maintains a treasure chest of items from the 1982 Orange Bowl. The contents of the box include his jersey, cleats and mouthpiece; a videotape of the game; a program; and, of course, a fading copy of a magazine with a country boy from Clemson on the cover.

  Jan 1992 - now

  Founder

  In 1992 Perry started a Sports Marketing firm designed to connect corporations with professional athletes. Since his glory days as a football player Perry has perfected many other skills including broadcasting, but his real passion lies in his gift as a communicator. Perry is an internationally recognized speaker who can not only motivate, but also inspire everyone in your organization to play up. Perry’s true gift is sharing compelling and humorous stories that engage every person in the room with a transparent real life approach that has audiences everywhere asking for more. Perry Tuttle truly believes in the power of authentic relationships as he creates them everyplace he travels.Perry has authored four books, "The House of Jesse", "Mom, I Want to Know You,"Dad, I Want to Know You" and "What White People Want to Know About Black People But Are Afraid To Ask".- The House of Jesse based on real life experiences as both a son and a Father. Many people have studied and written about the life of David in the Bible, but few have stopped to examine the influence of his father. Throughout his life, David was known as the “son of Jesse”, which inspired Perry to write "The House of Jesse" tol help empower men to begin to leave a legacy called Fatherhood. - Perry’s second book written in 2009 titled “What White People Want to Know About Black People But Are Afraid To Ask” is a fun and objective look at the perceptions of race relations. More importantly, because Perry learned that his own stereotypes can be misguided he wants to use this book to encourage healthy conversations amongst all races.Besides an author, Perry is the Charlotte Bobcats chaplain, a Teacher of the Authentic Manhood Series and a famous speaker who works to inspire Fortune Companies, pro athletes, corporate groups, sports teams, faith-based organizations and non-profit organizations to overcome personal barriers.
