Post a comment about it rather than just an article from a site we can go visit if we want to read articles. This is a message board not an online magazine.
Come on man. People do that all the time. I do it sometimes and ill continue to do it if I feel like it.
Speak for yourself...I have neither the time nor inclination to go web-surfing looking for UK related material. Appreciate the OP's efforts
Ive noticed this is something that really bothers you. If you want to talk about it we can exchange emails
My intention is only to share information and reports that I see on facebook, hoping others enjoy the updates on team and players. I try to post the original link, rather than the facebook link, hoping that makes it better and more accessible. I like and appreciate it when others do this, so I wanted to share, as well. GO CATS !!

Keep posting articles. Links are not some new fangled deal. As long as it's not some brand new poster with a link, I'm going to click on it. Why anyone wouldn't want to read the source material is beyond me.
From what I have seen it looks like Travis is doing all the right things and he looks to be bulking up a little bit. He isn't the fleetest of foot but he is efficient with his movements and he knows where to be. He also does a good job of defending off the ball and jumping passing lanes very similar to Reed. Travis is going to be a great player for us.
I saw him play three (3) times and my impressions were exactly the same as yours. He really knows how to play. My only reservations are his height and the ability to play straight-up, on-ball defense against college athletes. I think he can do it, but am not certain of it. He sure can do everything else. I am really pulling for him.

Frightening thinking he could easily be playing behind 5 star athletes not near as good as him for the next few years. Wish Sheppard could have enjoyed his time under Pope. Like the comment that he will play if he can guard. The best players will play regardless of stars, grade or where they are from.
Sheppard is taller and more athletic (jumping mostly). Regarding speed, and I could be wrong, I think Sheppard's footspeed is quicker with the ball on offense, but Perry's footspeed is quicker on defense and he seems to get into his man a little more ... but that was high-school, of course. Both are GREAT catch-and-shoot players, but my sense is that Perry can get his shot off a little quicker than Sheppard on spot-ups. Perry's catch-to-shot tempo is quicker, it seems to me. Both have quick hands.
Do I think Perry will have the kind of season and impact that Reed did, NO, but I think he is going to be a great player for the Cats !! Perry plays with the kind of all-out effort that will endear him to the crowd (same way for Lamont Butler) ... that I feel certain of. He plays very HARD and SMART ... after all, he is a coach's son.

I appreciated your link. Otherwise, I would have missed this article.
Thanks for the kind words and I like your tagline about tomorrow. So true ... and you especially realize it when you're my age.
Similarly, "tomorrow begins with today" is good to remember, I think, as appropriately noted by Monte Montgomery:
