Tyger and Donovan have. Last year it surprised me that Perry had such a fine game against (I believe it was) Purdue after Dent's injury. I've always thought Perry was a much better off/shooting guard than point. Clearly he has it in him by what he's demonstrated in the past but IMO we haven't seen too much of it or at least not enough. I do believe he is a good player with a lot of potential, but I also think he still has a lot to learn about playing the point. I also think he still can be a liability on defense and needs to learn how to compensate for his slow lateral foot speed. He still seems to get beat too easily and too often on the bounce.
