His Scout profile doesn't list the Bradley offer, but lists offers from Drake, George Mason, Oakland, Central Michigan, Rice, Toledo, and Western Michigan.

Another source says his favorites are Drake, George Mason, Oakland and Bradley. He has had additional interest from Boston College, Xavier and Notre Dame.

He is also a very good quarterback on his school's football team, and has scholarship offers to play Division I football. His father is the schools basketball coach.

However, he injured his right knee last week playing football, and will likely miss the rest of the football season. It has been reported that the injury involves a partial tear of the anterior cruciate ligament. His father has said he will likely miss part of the basketball season

Rivals profile also doesn't mention Bradley.

BU recruit Drew Valentine, who was injured playing football, and may miss a large part of his senior basketball season, has decided to end his recruitment.
He has committed to Oakland University. He had planned a visit to Bradley, but will be cancelling his visit.

Here is a premium Scout article about his decision--
http://scouthoops.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p=9&c=2&cid=796288&nid=3418021&fhn=1

From the article--
Drew Valentine, a 6-foot-5 Lansing (Mich.) Sexton product, committed to play for Oakland. "My top four were Bradley, George Mason, Oakland and Drake," Valentine said. "I had planned official visits to Bradley and George Mason."
Valentine, a standout for the Michigan Mustangs, won't be able to play hoops until January of his senior year. "I tore my ACL playing football the first game of the year and I had surgery three weeks ago." Oakland stuck with him during the injury and their allegiance played a significant factor in his decision.
