Read about it here (http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf-dr-saturday/ohio-state-de-steve-miller-predicted-his-sugar-bowl-interception-073410186.html;_ylt=A0LEVu.dpaZUy30AbSwPxQt.;_ylu= X3oDMTBya3R2ZmV1BHNlYwNzcgRwb3MDNARjb2xvA2JmMQR2dG lkAw--).
"I had a vision," Miller said. "I just want to thank my teammates and thank God."
I'm starting a Steve Miller Fan Club. Packers need to sign the guy and convert him into an ILB.
Isn't that quote above kind of Reggie-esque?
Maybe this guy is Reggie White's Mini-Me. I don't know, maybe he just talks like Reggie and plays like shit most of the time. Not last night though... Last night he had a vision and it came true:
Well, according to his teammates after the game, he had been talking all week about it after he had an interception in practice leading up to the College Football Playoff semifinal. The practice interception, however, was nothing like the pick-six in the game.
Miller's practice pick came off a tip. On Thursday, he got his interception dropping back into coverage. His responsibilities, he said, were simple, as he dropped between Alabama QB Blake Sims and his intended target Amari Cooper.
"Just backpedal, drop 8-10 yards over the tackle, find the ball and then run to the end zone," Miller said.
Miller is 6'3" 255 lbs. If you ask me, he talks and runs more like an ILB than a DE. Below is video of his Pick 6:

As pbmax says, how difficult would it be to convert a 4-3 DE into an ILB? The Pack wouldn't even have to draft him. He's projected to be an undrafted free agent.
I'm keeping my eye on this guy during the National Championship game. TT should too.
