Evin Demirel – Bobby Portis Needs To Keep His Day Job

 

By Evin Demirel

Bobby Portis doesn’t have much hair.

But what little he has, he let down in full during a Tuesday press conference after announcing he was taking his game to the next level. In basketball, he’s a potential lottery pick. In singing, he’d be lucky to find volunteer work in Bulgaria…

Q: … How tough a decision was it? … Like Mike said, it was something you had to wrestle with.

Bobby Portis: Man, last night I played this song, “I don’t want to leave, but I got to go right now.” That was cold, though.

No, it was a tough decision for me just because growing up in the state of Arkansas and being a native of this state, I felt like I was a great ambassador for our basketball team and for our program, not only for the basketball team, but for the whole, entire Razorbacks. I believe I showed kids that you don’t have to go to Kentucky or Florida just to try to live your dreams. Coach Anderson and his staff gets it done here, too.
