A couple more articles on Anderson's commitment:

Now Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan and his staff can work on filling up the 2011 freshman class. Too early, you scoff?
Perhaps, but barring an unexpected change on the roster, UW has filled the 2010 class with the commitment late Saturday from Eau Claire North sophomore center Evan Anderson.
The commitment, reported by Wisconsin High School Basketball - Boys / Youth Basketball - Boys, is the second and likely final one for that class. Madison Memorial sophomore guard Vander Blue recently committed to UW.
Recruiting rankings can be dubious barometers but the 6-foot-11 Anderson is rated the No. 5 player nationally in his class by Rivals.com and No. 10 by Scout.com.
Anderson played one season at Stanley-Boyd High School before transferring to Eau Claire North.
As a sophomore last season, Anderson helped North to the WIAA Division I state quarterfinals. He finished with 12 points six rebounds and four blocks in a first-round loss to Wauwatosa East, the eventual state champion.
Several big-name programs had extended scholarship offers to Anderson, including: Kentucky, Kansas, Boston College and Marquette.

I'm amused by the discrepancy between his actual statistics in these articles. He's averaging anywhere from 8 to 12 points. Those are some generous approximations.
