And that’s fair. Most of us, like you said, knew Perry would need plenty of time in the incubator. Actively cheering for a player to fail like TS is where the line should be drawn.
Terrapin Station part 2 Re: Travis Perry
- Thread starter twwilliams9
- Start date
The eye test says he’s never going to be anything more than 10 minutes per game kind of guy. I’m not shocked that fans who love boys from Kentucky are angry at my take. But anyone who thinks we won’t have guards far better than him at Kentucky, for the duration of his career, are mistaken. To put it another way - if there’s ever a time that he’s one of the better guards in the next four years, then that means we will have a huge recruiting problem.
Or come right in and not be able to make a 3 foot entry pass 😩
And finally, he has made a positive contribution to the game
Lol stop - steal and 3 point bucket.
Travis Perry to Terrapin Waste of Space: “What up now, b*tch?”
The hype for Kentucky white boys is unreal. Rupp Arena is acting like he just won the game 🤣
So you hate when "white boys" have success. You're really stinking it up with all your posts. Good to know that you'll be SEETHING for a long long time to come...... cheering for UK to lose.
Oh no.... @Terrapin_Station I hope you stay with us and not make a new screen name after tonight.
One game isn’t gonna change the fact that the guy is mid.
That's okay. Everybody has had an awful take once in a while. A real man comes back to admit it.
Travis is doing fine. He will probably never set the world on fire but that’s okay
He’s getting more minutes this year due to necessity
But I do think he’ll be a solid player off the bench his entire career and there nothing wrong with that

Was quoting him to say something similar although not as nice . That type of condescension will get your ass kicked . Kinda like thinking you are a badass in fighting , always a guy out there to proof you different , and in intellect , always someone smarter , who might have a EKY drawl . Pisses me off for someone in point A in Ky thinking they are better than someone from point B . That person is quite doltish .
For a freshman to come in and show the improvement he has made is amazing handers the ball well and passing is good and his shot has been fallen, of course he is playing with seniors so he is not supposeed to look as good as them, Perry has great upside.
You know this based off the 5-10 min a game he is playing? The guy is a freaking freshmen and you are already writing him off?
You are 100% the type of "fan" who would rejoice in being right and doubling down on your position if wrong.
Terrible fan. Get lost dude.
Here’s the cold hard truth you need to come to terms with, you don’t know ball.
Perry had to make the transition from high school to the best conference in America. Plus he is transitioning from a 2 to a 1. He has improved steadily. He will be serviceable this year but I expect a big step forward next year.
which is more than any contribution you've made to this board. You mention mid. You are the expert on mid based on your posts. As a poster, you aren't even mid.
Perry is doing fine
His confidence is showing
Ball handles are fine and gives Butler a little rest
Other fans I talk too agree
He’s very serviceable for what we need at this time and will continue to improve
All this while being a true freshman in probably the toughest conference of all time
Shot seems to be finding its way into the net now 2-4 last game, while one of those was a heave at last second
Anybody not realizing his development just don’t want to do so
And above all, a team player who just wants to help in our teams success

Travis Perry is something we aren't used to any longer: talented young guy that knows he has a way to go and listens to the staff and players to get better.
I see Perry being a contributor in the mold of a Travis Ford. Not overly athletic or able to blow by you with his speed...but a dead eye shooter with a high bball IQ that wows you with his consistency.
Freshmen player sproadically playing behind a seasoned veteran. Hes coming along just like he should in limited minutes. Also not always out there with the starters either. Made 6 of his last 10 shots including 5 for 8 from 3. Not doing bad for only 84 minutes of gametime.
