I don't know what type of confirmation you're looking for, but Andy Katz daily column on espn.com had this (I think it is where the ESPNews story originated from):

South Carolina targeting Missouri's Snyder
Monday, March 19:
Sources have told ESPN.com that South Carolina has made Missouri coach Quin Snyder its top target. According to the sources, Snyder will listen to South Carolina but is torn as to what to do. Snyder's wife is from nearby Charlotte, N.C., and South Carolina athletic director Mike McGee, like Snyder, is a Duke alumnus. McGee is apparently applying tremendous pressure on Duke to get Snyder to consider the Gamecocks. South Carolina coach Eddie Fogler resigned last week after the school refused to give him an extension beyond the remaining three years on his contract. Snyder is happy at Missouri and has repeated that this season. The Tigers reached the NCAA Tournament's second round and have the core of their team returning, including leading scorers Kareem Rush and Clarence Gilbert. But the deciding factor could be Snyder's commitment to his players and to the fact Missouri is a better basketball job than South Carolina.
