Braxton Miller Transfer - LSU Tigers may have the panacea to their offensive woes if the Buckeyes Braxton Miller joins the team.
Rumors have been circulating that the 22-year-old is considering moving to Louisiana. But there has been no official confirmation from the Buckeyes, LSU or Miller on this issue. A report by Baton Rogue's WAFB seems to be the source of these rumors.
The Braxton Miller transfer is thought to be a natural development after the highly rated player sat out the entire 2014 season with a shoulder injury. Nonetheless, the Buckeyes have been able to quality for the Sugar Bowl (and win) as well as the College Football Playoff National Championship with the help of his replacements.
Although the Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer and Miller have insinuated that he will return to the team this year, it is clear that Miller will have to settle for less playing time as he works his way into the team once again.
According to reports, the Braxton Miller transfer could see the QB land at Oregon or Louisiana. However, he is said to also be closely considering joining Florida State as well as Duke.
If the Braxton Miller transfer does pull through, pundits say he will be eligible to start playing for the Tigers or any other team he moves to immediately as he has already been awarded his undergraduate degree by Ohio State University.
Braxton Miller joined the Buckeyes in the 2011 season. He made 13 touchdowns and covered 1,159 yards in that season. In the following season, Miller improved his record slightly - getting 15 TDs and covering up to 2,000 yards. But the 2013 season was his best with the Buckeyes. He made 24 TDs and covered 2,094 yards.
