“I talk to Coach Dawson and that staff almost daily,” Anderson told InsideTheU. “They check in, call, talk to me for long periods of time, so I learn a lot about them and they get to learn a lot about me. It’s really special and what they got down there is super special.”
“I know they want to switch it up. That’s what I’m super excited about is them switching it up. ‘Hey, we’re going to throw the ball more than we have in past years like in Cristobal’s offenses.’ It’s super excited for a kid like me that’s big, athletic, big, long kid. You get to sling the rock around a little bit and that’s always fun. Coach Dawson is also an amazing guy and I really, really enjoy talking with him and having some deep conversations. The kind of quarterback he puts out, it’s crazy from what he was telling me,” Anderson said.
“I love Coach Cristobal,” Anderson said. “Just kind of what he says and the way he talks is super encouraging. He’s a great guy. That whole staff is awesome and they love to just be super high on guys and being encouraging. That’s what I really love about them.”
“I would like to be committed, if it happens before and I just fall in love with a place so much and I just want to go ahead and lock it in, then yeah. If it works out, I would like to be committed before summer so I can just enjoy my last summer as a normal high school kid. That’s how I want it. I’m just trying to find a school to commit to and not being up in the air about it. I just want to be done with it by my spring game, which is May 5. Just get ready for summer ball and next season.”
“[Dawson] said there’s a lot of good to come out of [playing basketball] because athleticism for a guy my size is huge. Being able to play basketball and block shots and move my hips around and my feet like that and just being able to run the floor well and play on the perimeter a little bit, play inside as well. Just being a guy that can move really well is super huge to him and being able to be an athletic dude who’s a multi-sport athlete is huge to him as well. It just shows a lot of my capabilities as a football player as well and that’s what he’s really said about me and said he likes about me.”
