Ben, don't feel bad about scooping up AZ's rejects. They are higher profile right now.

Turned out he was right, and as the spring went on, he was being recruited by KU, Kentucky, Arizona, Missouri and Memphis. Anderson was rumored to be taking visits to Kentucky and Arizona, but he says that he felt as if the schools were not shooting straight with him.
“There’s recruiting games that happen,” Anderson said. “Obviously, they’re not going after (only) me. They’re going after a bunch of people. When a coach is supposed to call you, and they don’t call you for a week and a half, that’s a problem. Arizona was supposed to call me back about the visit. But if things weren’t happening at the speed they need to be happening, there’s probably a reason. I just felt like I had to go with my gut.”
