FAYETTEVILLE — Razorbacks fans will have the chance to bear Whitt-ness once again at Bud Walton Arena.
SMU graduate transfer Jimmy Whitt (6-3, 175), who began his college career in Fayetteville, arrived back on the Arkansas campus on Wednesday where he will be immediately eligible next season.
“I don’t know how many times you get a second chance at the school you started at,” Whitt said Wednesday. “There was a feeling inside me that I wanted to give the school and fans something I couldn’t give them the first time around.”
After taking his name out of the NBA Draft and choosing to play one more year in college, Whitt chose Arkansas over Gonzaga, Oregon, Texas A&M and others.
