Jupiter Courier: Charlie Miller
Article here.
Quote:The 5-foot-11, 180-pound athlete said his "heart was with NIU the whole time," and he didn't have a good feeling about the sudden interest from Wake Forest and Kentucky. Miller liked that the Huskies throw the ball a lot and run the same no-huddle spread offense as Vero Beach did — a key factor since it's the only offense he knows.
"(Wake Forest and Kentucky) were waiting to see what was going to happen," Miller said. "I knew I was wanted at NIU. They were waiting on me. I didn't have to wait on them."
Quote:Ivory, a defensive back who committed to NIU in December, said he had been encouraging Miller to follow him to DeKalb, Ill. He chose the Mid-American Conference champions because he "felt at home there" and "a part of the team."
"I was always on him about it, saying it's a great place to be, they have great coaches, players, they have a great academic program," Ivory said. "They are one of the teams to win 11 games two years in a row and they might be the first to do it three years in a row."
