It didn't take long for Frederick Douglass grad Vick (actually Victor) Bradford to become the man at Fairmont State University (a Division II school in West Virginia). And apparently, after being thrust in as a true freshman starter late in the 2007, he is maturing into a bona fide D-II quarterback.
Bradford considers himself the next Tim Tebow: “Coach (Dumont) is working with me doing a lot of the same drills and things that Tim Tebow of the University of Florida does,” said Bradford. “We're working on drops, reads and progressions. That's going to be a big key for me. I know I need to become a better passer for us to be a better overall offense."
And as the recent article profiling the coming season states, Bradford is battling for the starting job with the guy he replaced: "A key to Fairmont’s offensive progression this fall lies in the hands of sophomore quarterbacks Vick Bradford and Derek Taylor. Both started at times last season as true freshmen and both enjoyed moments of success and moments of disappointments."
FSU (it has a nice ring to it) opens the season Thursday, Aug. 28 on the road against Clarion (Pa.) University.
