Tigers athletic director Mack Rhoades is on the record saying he expects marked improvement in Anderson’s third season. For his part, Anderson understands such pressure comes with the job.
"Any coach has urgency, and maybe we have a little more urgency, but Mack and I have had additional conversations since we talked last and I think we’re on the same page," Anderson said. "I agree with him that, at the end of this year, we can’t be looking and saying, ‘We’re three or four years away before we’re relevant again.’"

• Forward Russell Woods, the team’s only senior, is getting daily treatment for what Anderson described as a chronic knee issue. He’s still able to practice and work out with his teammates.
Anderson said he doesn't know much about NCAA investigation & pending COI report. "I would guess at some point it will be released."
