Trey Zeigler, the shooting guard that UCLA is recruiting out of Michigan, said today that the Bruins rank among the top teams on his list but that he will wait until spring before announcing a decision.

Oklahoma and Michigan are among the other schools on the 6-foot-5 prospect’s list. His father, Ernie, is the coach at Central Michigan and a former assistant under Ben Howland at UCLA and Pittsburgh.

Meanwhile, Josh Smith, a recruit who recently committed to the Bruins, will take care of the paperwork and sign tomorrow.
