"Bobby Portis is not a bad person," Paxson said. "He's a good kid. He's a competitive kid, but in this instance he made a mistake. And as we all know when you make mistakes you got to suffer the consequences. ...
"This is a team suspension. We did get counsel and advice from the league because this is really unprecedented in a practice situation. There's altercations a lot of times, but the result of Niko's injuries are why we've taken the position that we have."
"We talked with Bobby," Lopez said. "Obviously he's regretful about what he did. We talked about it as a team afterwards. Everything was still so fresh. We as a team feel there's blame on both sides. When it comes down to it the punch was inexcusable."

Well maybe this means he will get to start. Like Bert said most people get thier first because of injury.

Also does this mean that Martin has pro potential? He didn't hospitalize Whaley though sadly. Needs to work on his form.

Dammit Bobby! A MAN does't sucker punch anybody. Don't be a bitch, be a man.

Mirotic said we should keep Bert.
Guy had it coming.

All the racist comments on the Yahoo article gave me cancer.

on the surface there is nothing wrong with this comment. if you dig deep into Bielema thoughts on giving the next guy up a chance though you realize this part of the problem

Is it really a sucker punch if they are in a shoving altercation?
Posted on 10/18/17 at 1:43 pm to Ronaldo Burgundiaz
They were probably shoving. Stopped, and then as practice ended, Bobby probably snuck up behind him and hit him. Like a little bitch I might add. Sucker punching someone is a straight up little girl bitch move.

That's not how I read it. The description says the shoving altercation ended in a "sucker punch"
Like I said in another thread: As soon as you lay a hand on another adult in any kind of aggression, you should fully expect a fist fight.

Bobby was not the aggressor. He has never had character issues. Razorback fans should have known this. Mirotic started the fight, Bobby ended it. LINK /

Don't mess with those Little Rock boys.

You should change the title since Bobby did not sucker punch him.

This is not just 'punching a teammate.'
This is assault and battery.
You don't just sucker punch someone, deserving or not.

You win the "failed to read anything about it and decided to act like an a-hole" award.

It's a sucker punch if someone shoves you three times and is coming at you again, so you defend yourself by throwing a single punch? How about don't instigate fights if you take a punch like Glass Joe from Mike Tysons Punchout. Try reading the articles
