He's a stud...Go man

Yeah we need to go him even more.

The kid can play.

Guts.
And hands.

10 catches for 132 yds, and one rushing TD on 25 yes.

Just glad he didn't get injured

Miller is an essential part of the Memphis offense - obviously, but overuse could lead to injury. Noticed in the BG game or maybe the KU game that between the receptions, sweeps, punt returns & KO returns, Miller looked a little gimpy. Glad to see others fielding punts & KOs at OM game - although noted none performed quite as consistently well as Miller. Anthony is a real talent, hope he can stay healthy through the season.

Some years, hed have had to run back kicks and punts too. Depth is a beautiful thing.

No question about it. He's a talent that the SEC clearly missed on. Kid can flat out play. Fun to watch.

One of the best players I can remember watching in a Memphis uniform.

One of the things I love about him is when he gets tackled he pops right up like nothing happened. He is one tough dude.

We didn't give him a scholly to start with, either. A lot of people missed on him.

I'm not saying this to take anything away from Miller, he is already one of my all time favorite players, but I wonder what kind of player Duke Calhoun could have been with Paxton Lynch or Riley Ferguson throwing balls to him.

Players play in college. Just the way it is. I remember DeAngelo volunteering for kickoff returns. Set all-purpose yardage records. Tommy would run him 30+ times a game. People said he was using him up. Look at him today.

Obviously, the more you're out there, the greater the chance of injury. But a guy playing the position he's supposed to play is what you do. You don't save players.

Now running a linebacker at running back would be a whole nother story.

Miller is hardly being "saved". Miller is talented, featured & playing a multiple role & he's been injured. He's not real big either. But we have other guys who can return punts & KOs. Oglesby comes to mind as one who seems to be under utilized & has proven productive. And there are others. As for Deangelo, he was used & injured during his Memphis career. As for his pro longevity, he's been platooned since day one at Carolina. And that's a good thing for his career & longevity.

I agree. Miller is not being saved - nor should he be. I thought you were making the case he should be. If he's the best guy on spec teams - use him. You got to get your playmakers involved however you can. It's not like WR's take a beating on O.

I think I recall someone called the refrigerator in pro ball being used in short yardage situations.

I recall Ole Miss' best defensive lineman being put out of the game last year when they tried to use him in a short yardage situation.

But I agree with the coaching staff, the playmakers need to be on the field to make plays. Special teams can be the difference between a win and a loss.

Matt Dillon was on the radio today and said Temple had him "bracketed"
