The Arizona men's basketball team may have suffered its first defection. Freshman Jeff Withey was not at Wednesday afternoon's practice and no clear answer was given as to why he was absent. Interim coach Russ Pennell said he couldn't comment on the situation but has spoken to Withey and he is "working through some things" with the family.
