Had 21 points on 7-3s in an Ole Miss loss to NC State. he also had four steals
Happy for Travis Perry
- Thread starter DKersey
- Start date
AJ Storr, loaded with talent but I question his mentality. Scored one point in the 15 minutes Beard played him.
So what are you trying to say bud? He was here for a year. Are you trying to say he is a legit player now?
In the interest of accuracy he had 21 points on 7-13 fg; 5-11 3fg; 2-2 ft; 0 rb; 2 a; 2 to; 3 f; 4 st; in 33 minutes starting for a really bad team. Ole Miss is 1-5 against P4 competition. He got what he wanted to play a lot
I dunno man. People keep touring Beard as some next level dude.
He’s had one season that wasn’t a double digit loss year. Granted he made the Final Four that year.
I think he’s a solid coach but I don’t know if he’s that Tier 1A guy.

His defensive metrics still suck. Scored 21 gave up 12. He‘d be battling Jellybean for that seat on the end of the bench if he had stayed here.
I assume he got to play his true spot as a shooting guard, last year he was forced to play pg and that is not his game.
It’s nice that he had his first big stat night, but numbers can feel empty if they don’t help your team win.
And his team got drilled tonight.

he isnt struggling at all. 5pp and shooting 33% from the floor is about what he is....
How many high level D1 SG do you know that are 6’, average athleticism and can’t create their own shot? The answer is 0, that’s why he play PG last year. Common sense…..
Travis is a really good player. He just needs to play 30-32 minutes every game. When you usually only play 8-10 minutes, you really press. He just needs to play a lot of minutes, and then he’ll relax.
He’ll never get high enough level dudes because most parents probably don’t want their kid to be coached by a wife beater.
You are so wrong, the guy played pg because our PG was injured, he started the season as an off guard and their are plenty of 6 off guards in the power 5 conferences.
Meomi Pinot Noir. Works pretty well. Off until after New Years. Time to relax and enjoy life.
He reminds of of a mercenary who took whatever offer he could get based on his talent level and early production and then just quit putting in work knowing another school would think they could change him. Another in a long line of talented athletes who don’t love the game and it shows when they get paid.
Yes athletic ones with speed and elite tangibles. Or did you conveniently miss that part. Kid will transfer from ole miss this off season and end up at a Murray state/Belmont type college more suited for his ability. Nothing wrong with it but he isn’t capable of being a Shooting Guard for a high level school. Not a knock on him, just the truth.
Name one 6’ SG at a major school who can’t create their own shot and isn’t above average in athleticism.
Nice. I have a 12 year old bottle of Weller. Gotta work tomorrow so two fingers it is
Glad to see us Kevin’s sticking together. I’ve never met anyone named Kevin that wasn’t brilliant.
Good for Travis.
I think he made the right decision.
Even with all our struggles this year I don’t see where it really would have made sense to give him much clock if he’d been here.

We got our *** drilled by Michigan St and the buy the Zags, any team can get drilled. The Perry kid made the right decision for himself. If you are a player, you want playing time. What fun would it be to sit on the end of the bench. I personally would rather be playing and getting drilled occasionally than sit on the end of the bench and seeing my team get driller or win. I would want playing time. Honestly Perry will never be an all SEC player or get drafted by a NBA team but by his senior year he willl be a contributor. He is a Kentuck kid and we all should root for him to play well except when he is playinf our Cats. Why do people get pissed that he wanted to be where he could get PT. I don't understand the petty bitterness toward any kid that does not play for UK. We can only have 15 kids. There are thousands of kids wanting to play college ball. There are hundreds of college players who if they were at UK would be starters. Are we pissed at those kids because they did not choose to play for us?
Beard always struck me as overrated. Never liked the guy, something about his demeanor, and that was before the legal issues. He seems to make a good impression of basketball tv personalities for some reason. Guess he knows how to BS them one on one quite well
