As a top player in a highly recruited state, Anderson drew notable interest. He collected scholarship offers from 31 programs, including Alabama, Florida State, Auburn, Georgia Tech, Florida, Miami, Georgia, NC State, LSU and Texas A&M.
This isn’t Anderson’s first SEC commitment. He verbally pledged to Tennessee back on Oct. 20. He decommitted from the Volunteers on Jan. 27, but took his official visit earlier this month.
For Sunday’s decision, it was down to Mizzou, North Carolina and Tennessee, with the Tigers winning his commitment.
