SMU grad transfer Jimmy Whitt has committed to Arkansas.

The 6-3 guard, who committed to the Razorbacks back in 2014, transferred from the school after just one season.

However, after three seasons with the Mustangs, he’s now set to return to where his college career started.

Whitt averaged 12.3 points and 6.4 rebounds per game last season and should bring plenty of experience and versatility to the Arkansas backcourt.

The Razorbacks bring back several key contributors in Isaiah Joe, Mason Jones, and Jalen Harris, with Eric Musselman also landing two other grad transfers in Jeantal Cylla and Isaiah Moss.
