Answers, Part VII

Here is the seveth installment:

Where do you see Moutra fitting in in terms of the depth chart at WR this year? What does your depth chart look like for the WR's including the incoming freshmen?I think the main guys will be Marcus Everett, Terrence Austin, Gavin Ketchum, Dominique Johnson, Antwon Moutra and Nelson Rosario. I think Moutra will show flashes of being a game-breaker this season, and should be a star in a few years.

I know you've reported several times that Raymond Carter is on track to be ready for fall camp? Does that mean he's 100% or is he still experiencing some pain in his knee but to the point where he can still play on it?I asked UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel expressly about Carter at Pac-10 media day Thursday, and Neuheisel said Carter was "100 percent'' and ready to go for training camp.

Now that Rosario is playing in the 7 on 7's who have you been more impressed with: Rosario or Moutra?Moutra. He seems more polished right now, but that is before any of UCLA's coaches get a hold on him.

Are Damien Holmes and Datone Jones playing on the same side at DE or opposite?Not sure at this juncture. That will get decided in training camp.

Do you know who are the main competitors for Snaer and Honeycutt? I think we need them the most, in particular Honeycutt.I think the Pac-10 schools like California and Washington will turn out to be the biggest players for Snaer. Arizona State and USC are the other players for Honeycutt right now.

Do you think that the Stepheson family wants Alex at UCLA and Alex just wants to go to $C? I also think that Stephenson and Stovers decisions will impact one another. What do you say?I think Stepheson's decision is a family decision, and if the family wants him at USC, that is where he will go. As far as impacting Stover, I could see that. I do think UCLA has a good shot at Stover, but it is not a lock.

If it looks like we will not get Stover or Stepheson is there a snowballs chance in **** that BH would offer Sidney? I don't think Renardo Sidney will get an offer from UCLA. I could be wrong, but he doesn't seem like UCLA's type of player. Also, I'm hearing Europe could be a possible destination for him.

What exactly went wrong with Ramirez academically, can you say?I would prefer not to further embarrass the kid. The only way I will write it is if he says it is ok to write it, and wants to talk about it.

Do you see Neuheisel leaving UCLA for an NFL job if things go well for him at the college level? How long do you think Chow will stick around? How about Walker?I think Neuheisel will be at UCLA until he retires, or he gets fired. He is made for the college game and college recruiting. I think Chow will be at UCLA as long as he wants to continue coaching. His deal is for three years, and I think he will last at least that long. As for Walker, I believe he will get a head coaching gig in the offseason.

I honestly beleive that Norm Chow will do exactly what he did at USC. He will go after every head coaching job out there. He did this when he was winning championships and when he was'nt. How can we expect him to do anything different while he is here!

About Inside UCLA

This is Brian Dohn's sixth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.
