Trotwood’s Bradley signs with Pitt, rejoins brother
George “Bam” Bradley will reconnect with older brother Nicholas “Freezer” Grigsby at the University of Pittsburgh.
Bradley, a prized defensive back recruit from Trotwood-Madison High School, signed with Pitt during Wednesday’s National Signing Day. Grigsby, a teammate of Bradley’s at Trotwood, was a freshman linebacker at Pitt this past season.
Among the many offers Bradley had were from Ohio State and Stanford. Just last weekend he visited the University of Arizona.
Bradley’s signing was the only surprise during Wednesday’s Greater Western Ohio Conference Signing Day ceremony at the Huber Heights Athletic Foundation Center. The event honored 15 players from throughout the conference who signed to play college football.
Ifeadi Odenigbo of Centerville did not attend because he’s at Austin, Texas, preparing for today’s International Bowl as a member of Team USA. He signed with Northwestern.
Also not attending were Marcus Foster of Troy (Cincinnati) and Kaleb Ringer of Northmont (Michigan), both of whom graduated early.
Those attending the ceremony were Taylor Decker (OSU), Mile Eaton (Ball State) and Nick Simones (Butler) of Vandalia Butler; Benny McGowan (Michigan State) and Jay Mastin (Miami) of Centerville; Jake Bennett (Bowling Green) of Lebanon; Zach Myers (Kentucky) of Miamisburg; Jordan Freeser (Youngstown State) and Travis Nees (Toledo) of Piqua; Armani Miller (Toledo) of Wayne; and James Sanford (Bowling Green) of Xenia.
The football signing period runs through April 1. The signing period for field hockey, soccer, track and field and cross country also began Wednesday and is extended through Aug. 1.
The early signing period for basketball was last November.

Good luck to Bam at Pitt. Seems like a logical choice. Only disappoint I see on that list was Ringer. All that hype last summer and the bad-mouthing of Mr. Pendleton for doing his job and writing the story. Then when you saw him play this season, you wondered what Michigan saw in him. Didn’t even play well enough to make first team in the GWOC Central. Very disappointing season for him and his family. Hope he performs well in college and isn’t a bust like some other area players who have gone to Michigan.

To Roth 82 - while some area players may not be playing as expected at Michigan, let’s not forget Trotwood’s Roy Roundtree. I think he’s doing fantastic. See final TD during Notre Dame game this year :)
