PROFILE

This is Brian Dohn's fifth 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.

Wooden leaves hospital

John Wooden has been released from the hospital.
Here's the release from UCLA:

UCLA legendary former basketball coach John Wooden has been released from a local hospital and is doing well, according to his son, Jim Wooden.
Coach Wooden is now at a local rehabilitation center, the name and location of which is being withheld at the family’s request.
“Dad had one of his better days today,” Jim Wooden said. “He is now at a local rehab facility where he will do exercises two to three times daily. As soon as his strength is back, we will get him home.”
Wooden said his father wanted to thank everyone for their kind thoughts and the many get-well cards he has received.
Coach Wooden, 97, was hospitalized on February 29 with a hairline fracture of his left wrist and a fractured left collarbone he sustained in a fall in his condo the previous night.
Now that Coach Wooden has been released from the hospital, daily updates on his condition will not be issued.
