Likely to be the first or second guard off the bench for Ole Miss, good for him, hope that he is successful there except for when he's matching up against the Cats.
Perry to Ole Miss
- Thread starter senonesy
- Start date
He's gonna need the luck in all of Mississippi to play defense. He's horrendous.
Ten years after playing at Ole Miss he will be referred to as "hey bud, can you hold that door?" When he attends Ole Miss events. At UK, he would be a legend.

On second thought, I can understand better thinking it would be better going to a positive guy like Beard, because Beard has been positive about Perry, and I'd rather be with someone that has a positive outlook and positive direction for myself.
Wether he gets PT or not, I don't think necessarily means that much. And by going to another SEC school, he isn't taking a step back, say than if he went with another mid major team. So there's that too.
Hope it's a good fit for him. It would be great to see him develop and come back.

Jones hinted at 7 figures.
lol at people hoping the kid fails and claiming that's part of the sport
You're a hateful idiot if you think that way

I certainly dont wish him ill but it certainly feels odd that he transferred to a situation that isnt a massive improvement for him.
Lighten up on Drew he is still reeling from the caitlyn Clark injury I understand Drew
For guys like Perry?
My mind can’t comprehend that level of overpayment. Again, no offense to him. I just can’t see that amount of value brought to the program financially.I agree, not sure how big the benefit will be for him there but wish him the best.
*** Kew more like it. Wow, he avg those #'s at perennial power Long Beach St.
I may misunderstand NIL but I don’t see a Kentucky born kid making more money at another SEC school compared to UK. Especially when that guy isn’t that good to begin with. He can’t guard a lamp post and was unplayable at the end of the season. Pope tried to play him but after the Bama SEC debacle, he finally let it go.
Without major improvement, if he’s playing major minutes next year and making good NIL money Ole Miss won’t be that good next year

My guess is Beard told him he'll play the 2-guard. Best of luck to him.
U mean when he averaged 2 points a game? That was the Texas season.
I would be SHOCKED if he makes more than $250,000 per year for the next 3 years at Ole Miss.
The kid left because he wanted assurances about playing time for the next 3 seasons. At UK, Coach Pope is going to bring in not only top level HS players, but also the best transfers too. So Travis KNEW he was going to be a bit player in the program for the entire time he played here.
Coach Beard made it clear that he liked Travis when he went out of his way to mention him at the SEC Tournament even though Ole Miss wasn’t playing UK. That told me that Perry’s people were contacting coaches to tell them he was going to transfer. I’m sort of surprised that Beard was that high on him. Pedulla is as a similar player to him, but was much more physical and skilled with the ball.
Gonna agree with Drew on this one. What happened to the day where people hunkered down, put in the work, and got better.
If he wasn't a Kentucky kid people on this board would be saying good riddance.
Something tells me Travis may play alot there . Miss had a guard there that played a similar role that Travis will make no bones about Travis will see the floor alot
If you have to go to school somewhere ole miss isn’t a bad choice in many respects. I assume he accepts he’s not going to be in the nba so maybe his focus is on the overall college experience. I don’t recall beard being a deep into the bench coach but I also don’t factually know that either.
Well I hope Perry gets that many minutes because the SEC will destroy him and Ole Miss will be terrible.
Literally zero chance. Unless you count cents too.
Beard is obviously high on him, but I’m honestly not sure why on the outside looking in. Beard’s teams usually thrive on aggressive, disruptive defense and that’s not Perry’s game at all. Going to be interesting to see how he tries to fit all the pieces together since noted matador AJ Storr was one of his other major portal signings.
Nobody has any clue what they are making. Furthermore, people seem oddly infatuated with the amounts.For guys like Perry?
Rooting for your team isn't the same thing as hoping an INDIVIDUAL not on the team fails.
I was looking forward to being able to watch and root for four Kentucians. I will still have three to enjoy. Good luck to him and as with all the transfers.....bye.
I am not surprised at all honestly. Recruited out of High School and Beard obviously really likes him. He watched him play in the SEC a lot I’m sure so he must think he can have a roll. I doubt he will start or even be a first guard off the bench but who knows. I hope he plays well unless it’s against us. I’d love to have him back his senior year at least. Especially if he become a solid contributor at the SEC level. He showed flashes, but he just needs to prove he can defend.
