Ratings seem low and incomplete by the scouting services. It's taking them time to catch up, because Anderson has had a huge summer. He's AAU teammates with PG TJ Taylor, who the Buffs have also taken a look at.
I was pretty impressed by his athleticism and skill on his highlight video:
Anderson made his first round of cuts. CU made the list of 10 schools he's still interested in (and named us 2nd after ASU, if that means anything).

Anderson wants to take all five of his official visits before making a commitment. He plans to decide during the early signing period, which begins on Nov. 10 and ends on Nov. 17.
"Colorado is one of the schools that I am considering for a visit but I have to sit down with my coach again to see where everything is at with them," Anderson said. "I know their head coach (Tad Boyle is a very good coach. They have a great school for academics. And they are going to join the Pac-10, which is of course appealing to someone that is on the west coast like me.
Anderson decided he wanted a winning tradition and CU did not make his final 4: http://colorado.scout.com/2/994827.html
Gonna be Marquette, Oregon, Arizona State or Cal. (Not sure that any of those other than Marquette have a great basketball "winning tradition", but whatever.)
Marquette
