Porter Moser was reportedly recruiting him at ISU before he committed to NIU. Bradley had contact early, I have heard, but never offered.

Here is the Rivals page that shows ISU was interested--

This is not a surprise to me. The connection I made when I heard that Evansville was in on him is that the Wierzba boys are gonna have the in on alot of Class A kids being that their father Tom is very very highly respected statewide in the coaching ranks. Rock Falls has had somewhat of a great Sectional/Supersectional rivalry these past 10 or so years with Farmington, it is just speculation, but I bet this connection had alot to do with it.
