Early life and playing career
A native of Helena, Montana, Miller was a three-sport star at Capital High School. His athleticism caught the attention of then-Arkansas head coach Bobby Petrino, a Capital High alumni and former teammate of Miller's father.[1] A highly touted recruit, he received offers to play college football from schools such as Oregon, Oregon State, and Boise State and also received offers to play college basketball at Montana and Montana State.[2] He committed to playing college football at Boise State on Christmas Day in 2009.[3]
At Boise State, Miller redshirted the 2010 season after tearing an Achilles tendon in fall camp.[4] As a redshirt freshman, Miller set single season freshman records for the program including receptions (62), receiving yards (679), and receiving touchdowns (9) en route to freshman All-America honors in 2011.[5] By the time his college career ended in 2014, Miller was Boise State's career leader in receptions and second all-time in receiving yards.[6]
