Marco Anthony began his college career at the University of Virginia where he was a part of their National Championship team before transferring to Utah State. During the 2019-20 season, Anthony had to sit out due to NCAA transfer rules. His first season playing for the Aggies was this past campaign.
Anthony announced his decision to transfer via Twitter on Monday afternoon.
“Aggie Nation, I am forever grateful for you all for welcoming me to the great city of Logan with open arms as I was yet to showcase what I could truly do at the collegiate level,” the tweet read. “The relationships created with the supporters of the program as well as the memories that have been made within the basketball family will never be forgotten nor shall it ever seem as if it was taken for granted. I feel that it is in my best interest to re-open my recruitment as a grad transfer to find the best situation for me and my future. Thank you all for everything.”
