Anderson Highlights

[BCEagles25]

I thought he was listed at 6'7?

[Ahzeem]

Is Anderson a true 6'9" or are we talked more 6'7"? We've got a couple 6'11" kids coming in next year.

My impression is that most players' height gets slightly exaggerated in print. I would take a guess that Anderson is 6'8" with his sneakers on, but he may have added an inch in a final growth spurt, as sometimes happens. I'm similarly cautious about Caudill and Clifford, but of course the same applies to other teams' players, too.

he is a solid 6'8" pushing 9... I hope he comes in to BC around 6'10" and Caudill; that boy is a mountain that can run... it should be fun to watch

If Anderson is having a late growth spurt, that's really good news; size and mobility are a potent combination. Caudill, unfortunately, is presently a mountain that can't run because of plantar fasciitis, i.e., the beginning of flat feet, an occupational hazard for mountains that run. The good news is that it can be corrected with better arch support in his shoes; given his size, though, they'd better be really strong arch supports.

Caudill & Clifford from everything I've heard are a legit 6'11" (Tyler Zeller type size).

Perhaps they should be made of unobtanium.

Caudill & Clifford from everything I've heard are a legit 6'11" (Tyler Zeller type size).

Zeller's height, not size. Neither is shaped like Zeller. Put Zeller in the middle of a width scale with Caudill and Clifford on opposite ends.

Caudill's bulk clearly makes him a 5. Clifford can hopefully swing between 5 and 4. Anderson looks mobile enough to swing between 4 and 3. There will probably be situations next season where it will be useful to play all three at one time; the problem is that we won't have any bigs behind them. We definitely need to recruit one or two more big men for 2012.

The Don must have a thing for these west coast guys... Here is a little video of Jordan Dainals (#10) vs Ryan Anderson in the 2010 CIF rematch these guys will be good together: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PVJisOr ... r_embedded

Tuesday Poly moves on to face fellow BC recruit Jordan Dainels and his team mate Byron Wesley from Etiwwanda in the CIF semi finals. These two teams met twice last year Etiwanda won CIF, Poly won in State... it should be good.

Here is a Maxpreps Interview with the big man before Roosevelt win http://www.maxpreps.com/local/team/vide ... 6d76f6cc27

Here is a oreview of Rematch between Poly vs Etiwanda two future BC players Anderson and Daniels playing against each other and two future USC players Moore and Wesley

What;s the word on the poly sophomore prince? who is recruting him?

he is a good kid (young man) and has a good head on his shoulder... and he like Anderson he would love to a chance to play in the ACC. With a word from Anderson and some interest from the Don there is a good chance he would become an eagle

Anderson is more than just a baller http://www.gazettes.com/sports/poly/art ... 03286.html
Anderson named among LB Poly's Scholars and Champions.

Anderson is the 1st athlete from LB Poly to be named Gatorade Calif. player of the year for basketball http://www.gazettes.com/sports/poly/art ... 03286.html

On April 6th he willl also receive the Calif. D-1 John Wooden Player of the year award. http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/varsity ... unced.html

Dunk fest: http://www.gazettes.com/sports/article_ ... 002e0.html
Ryan anderson Calif player of the year finshed with over 100 dunks in 2010-2011 on a Poly team whose PG only averaged 4.4 assist a game he still was "Putting up buckets" I expect BC will be in the tourney each year with this kid on the squad... how deep they go is the only question. Every team he has played on went from worst to first, turn him lose, pass him the ball he might go for 25/30 per night. I can't wait t see let's go BC

[NJM89]

Its going to be nice having a big man down low that can dunk again.

LB Poly is not particularly known for producing basketball players; but football is another matter. Desean Jackson, Willie McGinest, Darnell Bing, Antoine Cason, Gene Washington, Winston Justice, Marquez Pope, Tony Hill.

Also Tony Gwynn, Chase Utley, Milton Bradley.

Knowledge bomb: Tony Gwynn was also a talented basketball player who set the career assists record at San Diego State. He was even drafted by the Clippers, albeit back when the draft had a lot more rounds.

I believe Snoop also attended LB Poly for a while before he pistol whipped the guidance counselor or such.

[Bunratty]

Ahzeem,

Do you see Ryan playing exclusively the 4 for BC, or does he have the footspeed to handle ACC 3's? Has he been involved in a weightlifting program in h.s.? Does the Don have him on a program for the spring/summer? Thanks.

lol this kid can run point if called on... he is like Magic Johnson well you BC folks will compare him to Larry Bird... he will be at BC this summer (June 29th) for the Don to do what he can do with him. He hits the weight room on his own, I am waiting to see how he does once he gets into a (program) where getting stronger and faster is his job.

Here was last night against the Chinese National team. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaVVo2pm ... r_embedded
