QB/WR Braxton Miller (B1G POY, National Champion, OSU HOF)



Just one of his "signature plays" at Ohio State.

I was there for that game... went to it with my cousin who knew a ton of students. Ended up pre gaming from noon to about 5pm at a house on campus because if I had gone up to kickoff I wouldn't have walked into the stadium. Perfect day too with it being cold, clear skies and Halloween weekend.

The roar from the crowd on the Devin Smith TD was nuts and I ended up on the field singing Carmen Ohio flanked by two buckeye players (don't recall who they were).

A bit off topic, but Braxton is the ultimate example of why NIL is a great thing…..kid shoulda been able to ride off into sunset with NIL $$$ from his tOSU days, but an injury kept him from Lamar Jackson type NFL money.
To piggyback off of that, Cardale would’ve been an NIL legend. The ability to make money off of the 12 Gauge nickname alone would’ve netted him some big coin

GREG ODEN, BRAXTON MILLER, KYLE SNYDER, GENE SMITH AMONG 14 MEMBERS OF OHIO STATE’S 2024 ATHLETICS HALL OF FAME CLASS​

Braxton Miller
Football, 2011-15

One of the most electrifying players in school history – whether it was as a quarterback or a wide receiver – Braxton Miller was a Big Ten Conference champion, national champion and major award winner throughout his five-year Ohio State career. His seven major Big Ten awards are the most by a Big Ten player: Chicago Tribune Silver Football (2012, 2013), Graham-George Offensive Player of the Year (2012, 2013), Griese-Brees Quarterback of the Year (2012, 2013) and Thompson-Randle-El Freshman of the Year (2011). Miller's 8,609 yards of total offense rank third in Ohio State history, his 3,314 career rushing yards rank seventh and his 5,292 passing yards is 12th. His 88 touchdowns responsible for (36 rushing/receiving TDs and 52 passing TDs) were a school record and still rank second.

After suffering a shoulder injury that cost him the entire 2014 season, Miller returned and played wide receiver in 2015 where he totaled 601 all-purpose yards and provided the iconic 'spin move' touchdown run in the season opener at Virginia Tech. Miller was a two-time team captain who was a member of teams that compiled a 56-11 record from 2011-15 with an undefeated campaign (2012) and the first College Football Playoff national championship (2014).
