Media pointing out a vocal minority of the fanbase for clicks is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo annoying.

Perry entering the portal makes me a little sad. I'm glad he got to live his Kentucky boy dream, but I get wanting to go somewhere and get more run. Hope he does well wherever he ends up.

I was just getting ready to post this story. I agree. I thought he could have left UK being one of the programs all time favorites, ala Richie Farmer, Rex Chapman, etc.

Meh, he can go somewhere and play and perhaps transfer back for his senior year if he has more to offer by then.

If he has more to offer later, he will have better options than Kentucky.

He'll never be more than a role player on high major team is what I'm saying. He's not gonna magically grow 5 inches and suddenly become a stellar athlete. He's always gonna get smoked on defense due to bad lateral quickness. There are things he can improve to become a better player but he'll always have limitations he can't do anything about. He'll prob end up at WKU.
