Head Coach Archie Miller and the Indiana Hoosiers received their third commitment in less than 24 hours as class of 2018 wing Damezi Anderson has announced his decision to join the Cream and Crimson.
Brian Snow of Scout.com was the first to report the news.
Anderson, a 6-foot-6 wing from James Whitcomb Riley High School in South Bend, IN, is rated the No. 91 prospect in the class of 2018 by 247 Sports.
He joins Race Thompson and Jerome Hunter as players that have pledged to Miller and the Indiana program for 2018, although Thompson plans to reclassify to 2017 and redshirt during the 2017-18 season.

Anderson is the first commitment Miller has secured from the state of Indiana, a point of emphasis Miller hit on during his introductory press conference in March.
Securing commitments from the top talent in Indiana was something the previous Indiana coaching staff struggled with in recent years.
Great but it’s Indiana University, NOT, University of Indiana.
It’s an honest mistake, but one made far too frequently. He’s a teenager.
