Travis Perry commits to Ole Miss

The BBN has been following closely to see where transfer guard Travis Perry will play his college basketball next season.

After entering his name into the transfer portal during the final hours of the spring window, Kentucky Wildcats fans now know where Perry will play his basketball next season.

According to a report by Joe Tipton of On3, Perry has committed to Chris Beard and the Ole Miss Rebels. He was also being recruited by Maryland and Vanderbilt, among others.

Perry, a 6-foot-1 and 188-pound guard from Eddyville, is the state’s all-time leading scorer in high school basketball. He showcased some of that scoring this season for the Cats as he was thrust into starting roles with the injuries to the roster this season.

Now, Perry will head to Oxford, where Coach Beard finally lands the Lyon County legend. With plenty of open roster spots and playing time available, the fit makes sense for Perry and the Rebels. If he can improve his defense, you have to imagine he could become a staple in Oxford for Ole Miss basketball.

Perry will return to Rupp Arena next season wearing navy and red. I’m sure we can all agree that is going to be too weird to see.

Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat. Best of luck to Travis in Oxford!
