Snaer update
UCLA and Moreno Valley Rancho Verde wing/guard Michael Snaer apparently have split on the recruiting front, with Snaer no longer listing UCLA as a favorite and UCLA no longer recruiting him.
According to Travis Showalter, Snaer's high school coach, the Bruins coaching staff did not follow Snaer during the Las Vegas AAU tournament.
"They didn't come to many of his games in Vegas and they're looking elsewhere as well,'' Showalter said. "Immediate playing time is important, and that's going to be difficult to get with the kids (UCLA) has going in there, unless a bunch of them leave after next season."
Showalter said Snaer's top four schools are Marquette, Missouri, Stanford and Florida State.

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.
I don't think that type of attitude fits well with our program anyway. Hopefully we'll still land a wing in 2009.
