OT Andy Miller (official thread)

[NightmaresDad]

Very nice comparison. A couple other guys that come to mind are Eric Winston from Cryami. If I remember right he played some te against us in 02' and Robert Gallery was a converted TE to T.

I think him and Ballard have a great shot at becoming very good tackles in a few years.

If Andy does make the switch, I sure hope he turns out more like Gallery than Winston!

Winston was the TE that was wide open and overthrown by a woozy Dorsey on 3rd and goal, the play before Cie Grant ended it all.

Well I know I wouldnt mind if he turned out like Winston b/c he is going to be a first round draft pick and you can't get much better than that.

Typical recruit that JT loves, very versatile, can play multiple positions down the road. Every successful football team needs these solid, hard nosed football players. I think he will fall in this category in a few years.

He's about 5 miles from me!:)

good get... congrats, and welcome to the Buckeyes!!

As stated above he has a nice big body that can play TE or OL (similar to Iowa's OL's)... a near 4.0 gpa doesn't hurt either

"He really has his priorities straight as far as doing the right thing and religious beliefs. That is the kind of guy I want in charge of me.

Tressel will bend over backwards for his players (see Clarett) to a fault because of his good nature and religious beliefs. This can only work in OSU's favor in terms of winning over recruits.

Another great article by Dave Biddle. Miller is confident he will stay at TE when he gets to OSU.

Andy Miller is interviewed in this week's BN Radio hour.

It's been a long time since I've been so impressed by a radio interview with a high school student-athlete. It's easy to see why JT wanted this guy.

I was very impressed by his maturity.

Wondering if anyone has heard anything about Andy. I know when we were recruiting him he kept making mention of how the staff is going to give him his shot at TE. With Nicol being here for another couple years and Ballard seemingly having a leg up, is that still where he is going to get that "first shot" or is OT in his future?

I would imagine with potentially a year left of Boone and Barton and some kids like Long, Adams, Davis, etc. possibly being in the fold, the numbers will dictate that Miller stays at TE. He undoubtedly showed he had the skills to be a D1 TE and although he may not see much time next year, he could definitely be seeing a lot of the field by his RS Junior year when Ballard will be a Senior and Nicol will be gone.

We have one year left of Barton and two years left of Boone.
