Ernie “Elevator” Johnson’s iconic tee is back! The beloved broadcaster wore the original version for a seven-foot dunk contest against Craig “Skywalker” Sager way back in the day, and we’re marking Ernie’s induction into the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame with a honey dippin’ re-release of the look. Ernie has teamed up with the School of Journalism and New Media at the University of Mississippi to help fully endow the Oscar Pope Memorial Scholarship, which honors a beloved Ole Miss alumni. “Having Ernie choose the Oscar Pope Memorial Scholarship as his favorite charity is overwhelming and affirms the way our community feels about Oscar,” says Andrea Hickerson, Dean of the School of Journalism and New Media. “We are hopeful the collaboration with Ernie will help us reach our goal to endow the scholarship by the end of the calendar year.” A portion of proceeds from the net sales of our Elevator Ernie tee will be donated to the Oscar R. Pope Memorial Scholarship Fund, benefiting the School of Journalism and New Media at the University of Mississippi.
