Braxton Miller, Scout.com’s No.1 pick for the class of 2011, announced today that he will be going to Ohio State. Miller has chosen Ohio State over Florida and current national champion Alabama.
So far I like everything I see about Miller. He’s got the throwing ability of Troy Smith and the rushing ability of Terrelle Pryor. Unlike Pryor, Miller shows a passing confidence and ability to read the field way beyond his years. If Pryor leaves early for the NFL, Miller will be ready to step in. If he sticks around for another year, Pryor may actually need to work to hold on to his position.
As a dual-threat quarterback, the transition from Pryor to Miller should fall right into place. Throw a top running back into the mix and the Buckeyes can look forward to a seriously high powered offense in the coming years.
The future looks bright Buckeyes. Bring on the Big 20 (or whatever we’ll be calling it by then).

Miller looks good …. unfortunately, the Buckeyes will have a difficult time getting past the Ducks next year.
Glad to see you’re still dreaming Tony.
Some people just can’t see the forest for the tree’s. Miller is the top rated Quarterback in his class. Buckeye’s all the way to the BCS Title game. Anyone hear any rumors about OU and OSU being invited by the Pac 10 to leave the Big 12?
Maybe I should actually read that entire Dispatch article. According to the story, the Pac 10 is ready to offer Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Colorado spots.
Like I said, I need to post on this article. It looks like it’s turning into a race to get to them first.
Here’s the article.
And he already has the ink. But he shouldn’t have gotten the leaves until he graduated…
