I think Bradshaw was more worried about beating out the Duckman Phil Robertson at La Tech (Robertson was a year ahead of Bradshaw and started in 1966 and 1967)...LOL...You may want to fact check that story. Yes, Bert Jones & Joe Ferguson competed against each other in HS but Bradshaw was three years older (at a time when there was only three years of eligibility) and if he had attended a higher profile school (such as Arkansas or LSU) there easily could have been a recruiting pitch to Ferguson and/or Jones that the QB position ill be vacant (as Bradshaw will have moved on to the NFL) by the time they are able to play.
