Marquette wasn’t the only team in the State of Wisconsin with transfer news. Trevor Anderson who had a hell of a freshman year at UW-Green Bay will be transferring to Wisconsin where he will sit out a year then have three years left with Badgers. I’m sure Wisconsin would have loved him for this season as Badgers go through a transition with a very young backcourt, but Anderson will provide scoring for the team when he gets on the court in two seasons.

Anderson calls it a ‘Leap of faith’ in his tweet, but I don’t know if that’s accurate. He’s a good player. Wisconsin offered him a preferred walk-on role. This isn’t JJ Watt coming to Wisconsin and wanting to transform into a defensive end. To me, Anderson showed to Badgers coaching staff with his year in Green Bay that he’s worth more than just a walk-on spot. It’s unclear if Anderson received a scholarship, but that’s what it looks like although his tweet might tell it is in a fact walk-on role again.

He only played 20 games for the Phoenix where he averaged 9.8 points per game and shot around 37 percent from three. In his senior year at Stevens Point, Anderson averaged 24.6 a game. Once again, Badgers added a guard who can score which falls in line with guys like Kobe King and Tyler Herro who are coming to Madison this season. If you want to connect dots a little bit, Joey Hauser is getting recruited hard by Wisconsin. He made that clear and while they only played together when Hauser was a freshman, I’m sure there’s a relationship there. His older brother, and Marquette standout Sam congratulated Trevor on making the move.

Badgers are likely not done this offseason. They have two scholarships for the 2017-2018 season plus they’re looking to add a grad transfer to give this team some experience. If that does happen, it will be a very interesting time on the ol’ Twitter.
