Ole Miss has beaten out head coach Buzz Williams and the Maryland Terrapins for coveted transfer guard Travis Perry. According to a recent report, Maryland was "pushing hard" for the 6-1, 188-pound prospect out of Kentucky.

With three years of eligibility left, Perry would have been a nice addition for the Terps. Although he only averaged 2.7 points in 9.7 minutes per game for the Wildcats, the former four-star prospect is widely viewed as a guy who can develop into a major contributor at the collegiate level. But instead of taking his talents College Park, he's headed to Oxford instead.
