Warner says UCLA unlikely

Compton College defensive tackle Branden Warner said today it is now unlikely he will go to UCLA, where he orally committed, marking a huge blow to the Bruins. He was expected to contend for a starting position.
Warner said he spoke at length with members of the coaching staff Sunday, but he no longer feels comfortable with the program. He said the lengthy conversations with UCLA were because the staff “is still trying to get me to go there.”
Asked what the problem was with UCLA, Warner said “a whole bunch of stuff’.” He added UCLA did not remain in close contact with him during a trying time this spring in which he was finishing classes and trying to resolve an outstanding tuition bill. He said his transcripts were released to schools today.
Does it look like UCLA is out of the picture?
“Probably, but I can’t say definite,” he said.
Warner said he is now looking at New Mexico State, SMU and Ohio University.
“They are all about even right now,” Warner said.
