Nicholas K. Miller is the Defensive MVP of the 1981 Liberty Bowl, for The Ohio State University Buckeyes. As a middle guard, Miller was also voted "Most Inspirational" player, by his teammates in 1981, in addition to his outstanding performance in the Bowl game against Navy.[1] Miller had several sacks throughout the game, giving Navy's offensive line a very difficult time. In Navy's second possession of the game, Miller forced a fumble, recovered by Ohio State.[2]
Miller was recruited to play for O.S.U. from Saint James High School, in Chester, Pennsylvania, while residing with his parents (Shirley & Judge Kenneth Miller) and his four brothers.[3] Recruited by Woody Hayes in 1977, Nic moved to Columbus, Ohio to begin his football career after turning down scholarships from Boston College, Miami University and Maryland University.[4]
In 2001, Miller was inducted into the Delaware County (PA) Hall of Fame.[4] After graduating from OSU, Miller began a successful career in pharmaceutical sales in central Ohio, where he resides today, happily married to Stephanie Miller, with three daughters.
