Spring Evaluation Period

Featured Recruit

ATH Isaiah Bradford

• 6’1” 170 lbs
• Redlands East Valley HS (CA)
• MWC offers: Boise State, Colorado State, San Jose State

MWCConnection: As a player, what do you feel are your biggest strengths?

Bradford: My strengths as a player: recognizing plays and being able to react... fast instincts... coming downhill and tackling is my bread and butter... I’m able to adapt to any situation in a game, I’ve been told by college coaches I look very smart on the field beyond my years.

MWCConnection: On the flip side, what are the areas of your game you are working to improve upon before next year?

Bradford: I want to make more plays when the ball is in the air as a db. Also I want become a more dynamic receiver and have my team able to depend on me in a big time situation to make a big time play.

MWCConnection: Do you have plans to visit any schools this spring?

Bradford: I’ve been up to San Jose State and Sac State at the beginning of the month. I plan to get up to Colorado to visit CU and CSU, also I plan to get up to Boise. I know for sure I’ll be attending some Redlands camps this summer.

MWCConnection: What do you like about each of the MWC teams you have offers from?

Bradford: I don’t really know much about Colorado State but when I talked to Coach Letson he seemed like a really cool coach and I think we connected well over the phone. I like Boise State’s football program a lot, I like their winning tradition and their consistency in getting their players to the league because that is my #1 goal. They show me a lot of love and make me feel as if I’m apart of the family already. I like San Jose’s location a lot, I can see myself on that campus... I also like the historical background of the school, that caught my attention a lot. Also, I know I have a good chance as playing as a true freshman as long as I put in the work needed.

Commitment Spotlight

LB Vai Kaho (Nevada)

“I committed because of the hometown advantage and my family being there right with me, those were the biggest factors in making my decision. This wasn’t overnight and I prayed on it and asked for guidance. Seeing Coach Norvell come in and change the standard of the program in Reno meant a lot to me and I am a big believe in hope and faith. My family is the most important thing to me and they would have the opportunity to see me succeed in our own town. It’s a family affair down on campus with the coaches. I really feel a change coming in the program with them being there. They are on me about school and coming there consistently and was the school showing the most love so far. They like my physicality along w my speed and quickness. They feel I could be a threat and impact on the defensive side of the ball. They see me as a linebacker who could come up to the edge cover ground and fill gaps aggressively.
