ScarletVader;1803897; said:Braxton reminds me of a better Michael Robinson who played for PSU a few years ago.
Wayne was led by senior quarterback Braxton Miller, who has verbally committed to Ohio State, and finished 7-of-14 for 63 yards and a score.
Miller also rushed 18 times for 47 yards and a touchdown.
Wayne?s Miller trying not to take Robinson?s path

It?s easy to draw a comparison of University of Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson to Braxton Miller of Wayne High School.
Unless Robinson is derailed by injuries or concussions, he should become the NCAA?s all-time single-season rushing leader at his position. He?s already run for 1,349 yards and needs just 146 vs. Big Ten foe Purdue this week to claim the mark.
The only problem is he?s been knocked out of three games after injuries to a knee, his right (throwing) shoulder and a concussion. He?s entertainingly elusive, but gangly and an easy target for a defender hoping to make ?SportsCenter? highlights.
Miller used to be that guy.
?I don?t need unnecessary hits on my body,? said Miller, who avoided at least a half-dozen whacks by stepping out of bounds in last Saturday?s 21-0 playoff defeat of Middletown.
?You get what you can get and get out. When you?re a young pup, you just want to get out there and run around. But I?m growing up and getting more maturity.?
Just as elusive as Robinson at this level, Miller has missed nearly a season of games in four years with the Warriors because of injuries. He still runs, but not as the first option. His passing is better than ever, and he?s had the most consistent five-game winning stretch of his career.
If ever the future Buckeye needs a reminder of how a career is destined to implode, all he has to do is keep tabs on Robinson.

Won't hurt that Braxton is graduating early and will be here for spring ball too. Should make the transition much easier.y0yoyoin;1808899; said:great news for braxton that pryor is coming back next year...going to be great for his development...pryor will be a great teacher and role model for braxton so im very happy to read pryor plans to come back next year
k2onprimetime;1808967; said:Do you guys think Braxton will redshirt? Or will they play him some?
SayNoToMichigan;1808970; said:I think he will redshirt even if TP stays. Guiton has showed promise, and Graham was a surpise in fall camp.
