no doubt where the kid's heart is

I would still love to see him in our Hall of Fame.

Does the transfer totally eliminate that opportunity?

MeanGreenTexan · March 22

Mentioned starting at Coffeyville... bypassed his biggest accomplishments... went into massive props for KSU.

It should eliminate that opportunity. But I'm old school.

BleedingGreen · March 22

I would like to see him on our coaching staff in charge of player development. Also playing in TBT. Either Ross or Mac should grab him.

Cooley · March 22

I'd pass

Kansas.

Not one mention of us, other than the picture, coaches here, players, NIT championship, etc... No to the HOF

Could there be more to his departure than money ?

MeanGreenZen · March 22

Can someone move this post to the Kansas State message board? We still have a game to play tomorrow.

Why the jilted lover syndrome? He was a hired gun for us and a hired gun for KState. KState gave him more money and a bigger stage. Let him go live his life. We should be grateful for what he did here and that he is a UNT graduate but what he did at KState and how he said goodbye there should be no more than a passing interest for us.

Think some of yall reading too much into that. Kid made a whole video saying goodbye to UNT.

Hired gun? Bigger stage? Did KSU get more coverage this year than we did last year? I know Big XII, but I don’t recall them being on television much.

It's not him. It's the system.

So, when an opportunity rises to laugh or mock the system I am going to. Perry here is simply collateral damage.

KSU was in the Elite 8 last year while we (with Tylor) won the NIT. If you are a college student with one year to play and national championship aspirations, do you stay where you are having just won a NIT title and lost your head coach or do you transfer to a team with a second year coach who went the Elite 8 in year 1?

Which makes it that much funnier...

He left a NIT Championship team and went to a squad you know were all bumpin gums about winning a natty just to get bounced in the first round of the tournament in which he won last year. It's just funny. While he's romanticiszing a round orange ball on X, we're still playing.

You think he is heartbroken or feels a little better today? Maybe he is laughing at your puffed up chest from yesterday.

I'd love for every star player to stay at North Texas for the remainder of their college eligibility, but... I also want what's best for our players. If a player receives an extremely lucrative offer to play elsewhere I fully encourage him/her to transfer and accept it. Perry did EVERYTHING he could do for this program while he was here and only left when KSU reportedly offered him a quarter million dollars. That's pretty serious money for most college students.

We just need to build our fan base to the point where we can afford to retain that type of player.

He already showed who he was running tail out of town then ending up in the NIT and losing before UNT. It’s all about me me me….
