Miller has 40 offer all from Major D1 schools Bama, Texas, Georgia, USC, Ohio St, TCU, A&M etc.... He is the best football player in SETX right now hands down. 

After winning the 4A POY, no doubt he is the best in SETX. But IMO this should be awarded to a senior.

I see Jamaal Charles only one to win back to back. Miller gonna do it too.

How many JRs have won?

Let’s take a look at dischler 2,400 yards and 28 touchdowns, and carried Orangefield to a DC this year. Also broke the single season rushing record and all time record at Orangefield. Tough number to beat.

Miller did the same for Silsbee at the WR spot. Also advanced to Regional final.

We know your motivation here.

Pretty old.

So is crying about a guy who lost to a better nominee six or seven years after it happened.

Let’s make it simple. Pretend that one Friday these two qbs faced off in an actual football game. Which one would lead his team to victory in a head to head battle? That’s another pretty good indicator of who the better player was. 

FWIW, it’s not statistical analysis, it’s a contest that’s voted on by members of the sports community, a majority of which rightfully believed that The Mighty Jack Dallas deserved the WRS Award.  Take a Tums and get over it.

Didn't take them as far as miller did in the playoffs. I have lumberton qb powell ahead of OF rb... Miller a solid 1st.

My complaint is and has always been we voters need to be more consistent on the criteria of deserving winners. Some vote purely on the current hype.

I know some vote strictly for the novelty of it.

But, it is what it is. I certainly rather have this way of voting (12-15 media members) than having a fan vote or one or two making the decision.

I will help you stand corrected.

27 is not 40.  I have not ever said Miller isn't  a good player. Recently he has dropped in the recruiting rankings for some reason.

In bold: if that's true I wonder how much camp performances factor into that........ 🤔

WO-S has 8 on defense and two on offense. Tells you a lot about the consistent teams. The years Newton made it to state 7 times was with good defenses. The same for WO-S, Gilmer and Carthage. PN-G finally figured that out last year.      
Good defenses give the offenses more opportunities.

24/7 has Miller with 43 offers. 
 

This is the hidden content, please

He’s thinking he’ll commit in August

 

That's what I saw. South Florida just offered yesterday.

I speak to Dre'lon's dad about once a week. He and I are good friends. He keeps me informed on a weekly basis.

As always Ash, you are spot on with your post.
