Several potential early round NFL draft picks have also accepted invitations
to play and Miller will face top competition in this game, including former
Florida Gators defensive tackle Marcus Thomas. Thomas will be joined by fellow
Gators senior defensive lineman Joe Cohen. They will join other highly-rated
prospects like Miami, FL wide receiver Ryan Moore, LSU running back Justin
Vincent, Missouri defensive lineman Xzavie Jackson, and James Madison
quarterback Justin Rascati on a Nation roster that will face Texas' best.
The Texas team features mostly players who played their high school or
collegiate football in the state of Texas. However, Miller has been placed on
the Texas team because he played in 2006 at nearby Arkansas-Montecello. Prior
to that Miller played for Fresno State where he accepted a scholarship to
directly out of Tustin High. Miller was highly recruited as a prep star by a
number of Pac-10 and Big-12 schools.

Miller is currently training in Lake Forest, California with Todd Norman of


the Cutting Edge. Mr. Norman reports Miller has exhibited an extraordinary
work ethic which has produced very positive results thus far in the NFL
Combine Preparatory program. Miller has been training for the past month with
Norman as well as Phil Parker, the developer of the "Hip Concept." The Hip
Concept teaches player to maximize the use of leverage and positioning. The
training took one player from an undrafted free agent to a starter with the
San Diego Chargers in only two years "I have the best trainers in America and
I am ready," says Miller. He will be reporting to the all star game on Sunday
at 253 pounds standing 6-3.
Miller has also been working with Coach Bill Cunerty who founded the West
Coast Passing School in 1983, along with Mike Holmgren and Jim Fassel. Cunerty
also coached the football team at Saddleback College for many years. Cunerty
reports that Miller, whom he watched play in high school, has excellent
athletic tools for a large linebacker including great hands.
The Texas vs. The Nation Game will be played at the Sun Bowl in El Paso Texas.
The game will be nationally televised Friday, February 2, 2007 at 8pm MST on
CSTV.
