'12 OH S George "Bam" Bradley (Pittsburgh Signee)

Scouting: 2012 S George "Bam" Bradley | TheRinger.com

Strengths

- Great frame for a strong safety. Some worry he?ll outgrow it and have to develop into an OLB but he should be fine.
- Big hitter, big hitter, big hitter. He?s an identity type player in the secondary who can drop the hammer with intimidating hits and takes solid angles.
- Smart kid (near 4.0 GPA) who plays the same way. Diagnoses and reads well and reacts quickly.
- Good form tackler, wraps up well. Anytime you have a young secondary recruit who already knows how to form tackle you?re a step ahead of the game.

Weaknesses

- Initial burst leaves something to be desired but that can partially be contributed to his next weakness of?.
- Getting up too high in his stance, which makes it harder to a) get burst, and b) form quick short chops in footwork.

247Sports--Schools are after Bam

Bam says he has verbal offers from Northwestern and Kentucky and is very impressed with the NW academics. He says everyone wants him at tOSU but he cannot consider them much until he gets the offer.

They are both Wildcats, do you think he is impressed with Kentucky's academics?

Ugh. Fixed.

Identifying the real "academic wildcat" is not that easy;

Bam is a good player, no doubt... But I wonder if the hold-up is whether he's a S or LB at the next level. He's a big kid already that's going to get bigger with college weight-training.
