Dayton Daily News columnist Tom Archdeacon did a nice feature on Bradds: Bradds still have game in family

I was unable to get to Flyin to the Hoop on Monday but received great reports on Bradds. Heard "stud" used a lot. Of the players who played Monday, Rivals rated Bradds as 3rd on its Top 10 list:  http://dayton.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1319640

Loved him in the spring,but 6'6 2013 Evan Bradds is slowly becoming one of my favorite MM prospects to watch.

Now comes Evan, a 6-foot-7 junior, who already has committed to Ohio University. And down the way, his brother Ethan, a 6-3 seventh grader, likely will follow suit.



Am I reading too much into this line from the article?

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Wait until he's in 8th grade to lock up a commit.

I was just thinking the other day what we were gonna do with our 2017 scholarships we still have available.  Nice to see some action on this.

All signs point to Groce hitting a home run here. Imagine if he can grow 2-3 more inches?

Greeneview plays Miami East tonight at 9 PM at UD Arena.

Greeneview started the tourney with a 69-45 win over Middletown Madison (Bradds 10 points) and followed that up with a 48-42 win over Bethel (Bradds 19 points).

I do announcing for the Sectional Tournament in which he played.  I saw him play against Bethel, and wow.  I'll be honest, as i Was watching all I could think was, man I wonder where he's playing next year.  Then I looked down and saw he's a junior, then I talked with our football coach, and he says, "I bet you're glad you're a Bobcat fan?" I had no clue what he was talking about until he told me. 

I know I know, its just D-3 sectional basketball, but this guy is good.  He could stand to put on some more muscle but he's quick, athletic, and he can shoot. 

I really think we're going to enjoy him for a few years...

This is why I hate instability in the coaching ranks because there is almost always a trickle down effect like this. Wonder if Bradds was tied that closely to Groce or if the Christian hire turned him off.  Maybe we had no chance to keep him once Groce left.

Looks like he wanted Ford according to tweets by his dad. I will say, I can't find anything to substantiate the Bradds decommitment other than Mollaut. I don't trust the red birds.

Two more tweets thereafter from Arkley...

Bradds said all he's heard is what's going on twitter this evening. "I'm going to open it back up and see what happens."

Bradds said he made up his mind about going back into recruiting tonight. Ohio asst. Dustin Ford was his primary contact in earlier process

A couple hours ago, his handle was "Mr_Bobcat21".  It is now "E_Bradds21"

This really pisses me off.
