Is about 100 degrees a pretty good baskin point?? And would 9 inches be a juvenile??

If the size of your beardie is 9" then yes he is a juvi and his basking temps should be 105-110

basking temps range from 105-115 depending on age. when younger, hotter is better. never judge a BD by size. I have seen 1 year old BDs that were under 12".

my rule of thumb is up to 8 weeks is a baby, 2-6 months is a juvie, 6-12 months is a sub adult and over a year is an adult. This is not THE rule, just my rule of thumb.
