It’s not over. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

In fairness I think it would have been over if the Germans had bombed Pearl Harbor....

It's kind of surprising Arkansas would take him back!

I imagine we wouldn't have taken Keith Frazier back if he wanted to return.

They need someone like Whitt. They have very good 3 point shooters and decent inside. Need someone to run the show. Arkansas fans were sad to see him leave but he did not fit Anderson’s scheme.

I like Jimmy. He did some things really well, but I will not miss him. He did an admirable job running point, a position not natural to him, was really good in the mid-range, and is a great rebounding guard, but his lack of outside game, FT%, lack of ability to penetrate/create or score around bigs at the rim, and his sporadic defense when facing quick guards will not be missed.

This 100%. Liked his cool threads also - but I don't think it will be all that hard to do same or better at point guard. Best thing he had was that 14 ft jumper - the rest was not typical of a top drawer point guard.
