Tritons starting freshman PG Roddie Anderson to transfer. All Big West, Freshman of the Year, 6'2 190 lb averaged 13.1 ppg, 3.8 rpg and 3.6 apg this past season. Finished the season strong with 24 vs UCD 2/20, 25 vs UCI 2/22 & 21 vs UCSB 2/25. Started 27 of 30 games at UCSD.
The staff should know something about him since he is 15 minutes away in LaJolla.

I assume that he is not a sleeper in the Portal. No public connection with the Aztecs.

Roddie Anderson III
The Good: Great athleticism, bouncy, good length for a point guard at 6' 2" Solid playing off of screens on offense, smooth euro step near the rim, looks polished at times for a freshmen running the offense. Good court vision, sees open players and dishes the ball - 3.6 assists per game. Good help defender, can cover a lot of space to help his teammates (long arms as well). Jumps passing lanes for a good number of steals at 1.2 per game.
The Bad: Solid (looking) shot, but his 3 point % would suggest otherwise at 29%. Forces shots sometimes near the rim in traffic. High turnover numbers - part of this is forcing things too much on offense - 3.2 a game. Sometimes gets burned as an on-ball defender. Needs to improve on his ability to play through screens.
Everything else: Rebounding - He gets 3.8 rebounds per game, but if you watch him play he isn't really aggressive in going after the ball. Has a tendency to fall asleep once the ball is in the air if he isn't in position to get the rebound, instead waiting for his teammate to get the ball on defense. Thus he sometimes fails to recover when the other team gets an offensive rebound. Doesn't always move without the ball from behind the 3 point line when he should.
Basically, he's a talented PG that has flaws that need to be improved upon. Not sure that he is the sort of player that we can recruit and just plug in next year. He would be a good get as a player that could grow into the point guard position, transitioning from getting 10-15 minutes next year to 20-25 the year after. He could be the team's third guard next year behind Butler and Trammell (if he comes back), or a grad transfer. Not sure that he is willing to accept that role given his talent level and the fact that he is leaving UCSD after just one year. Might end up with another MWC school.

He's about 7 inches too tall for an Aztec transfer!

I thought only smart kids got into UCSD? What is the draw to Boise State? I hope that Anderson doesn't haunt us.

I thought only smart kids got into UCSD? maybe got in as an athlete and found out UCSD is no joke when it comes to classwork. going from UCSD to Boise is a serious change of pace for academics.

The two big holes to fill are a big scoring guard/wing & post man. Need to replace these duos Bradley/Sieko & Mensah/Arop. Trammell and LeDee look to return, Keshad is a wild card, but assume he will be back too, based on this DEEEEEP run into April.
