Aubrey Miller Jr - Hudl

Miller is blowing up on the camp circuit but he does not currently have a UT offer. He may be the top LB prospect in TN and the most underrated instate prospect overall.

March '16 in New Orleans:
The day’s linebacker MVP award went to Memphis (Tenn.) Whitehaven High's Aubrey Miller, who moves incredibly well and boasts a frame equipped with long arms. Miller was solid in coverage and showed an ability to move well laterally. Miller’s strength is his versatility, which will only improve as he adds more muscle.

Yesterday in Chicago:
Top five on defense
1. Aubrey Miller, LB, Memphis (Tenn.) Whitehaven – An athlete playing linebacker rather than just a big body playing the position, Miller was all over the field on Saturday. He made plays downfield in the pass game, looked good in space and was instinctive on the second level. Louisville was his first Power Five offer this week.
The Opening Chicago Regional top performers

Great sized kid who consistently stood out in drills and in pass coverage. He only has one offer, but there should be more coming.

"Cat and Mouse" is a popular drill at The Opening pitting running backs against linebackers, as running backs try to race to a line before being "tackled"—two-hand touched, palms up—by linebackers. It's normally a competitive event with the opportunity for a few moves that can make a running back well known on social media.

Memphis, Tennessee, linebacker Aubrey Miller Jr. decided to make the most out of his situation and steal the limelight from running backs, dominating the drill and getting social media to turn its attention to the linebackers after one play that drew multiple oohs and aahs.

Miller's the first to admit he plays the game with an aggressive nature, and while he didn't try to hurt anyone in the drill, he did want to make a statement. "You can look at my film. That'll tell you a lot," Miller said of his aggression. "I told a Louisville coach that I like to hit a lot. He saw my film and got back with me ASAP. My film says it all; that's what I like to tell people."

I don't see how someone who dominated two Openings could be that under the radar.

Well, I follow Memphis football also, growing up in the area, they were really wanting this kid and are the one offer the article mentions. I thought they were gonna be able to steal him but after showing out in the camps I doubt that now.

Memphis is Ole Miss territory, I bet they offer soon

Memphis is Ole Miss territory, I bet they offer soon

There will always be a strong Ole Miss presence in Memphis, but getting the best prospect in the city in the last couple years (Richmond), showed Tennessee isn't giving up on Mem. I'm fine with UT focusing more on the mid-state, where most of the talent is. The top prospect in the city next year, Richardson (RB from Treszvant) is going to FSU.

So since when did Richardson decommit from Clemson.
