Windows NDIS device drivers work because the co-called Project Evil is emulating the NDIS subsystem of Windows, effectively tricking these drivers into believing they run under Windows. However, to support Windows drivers for USB networking devices, would require emulation of the USB subsystem in Windows as well. This is not the case for FreeBSD today.
