Simon may sit out again
Arizona might have to get used to life without Miles Simon.
Simon, a junior guard, might miss this Friday's game against No. 7 North Carolina due to his failure to comply with an academic commitment. If Simon is deemed ineligible, it will mark the second game he's missed in as many weeks.
"We will wait until later this week before a decision is made as to whether Miles will play," UA coach Lute Olson said.
"The situation is still being evaluated and that's all I know," Simon said. "It's very frustrating but I think I will be playing on Friday."
As to Simon's teammates, they echo his optimistic view on the situation.
"Miles is a big factor on our team. I'm sure he'll be playing against North Carolina," freshman forward Eugene Edgerson said.
