Miller was born in West Palm Beach, Florida and played scholastically at nearby Clewiston High School.
[1] He played collegiately for the Miami Hurricanes,[2] where he accumulated 10 school records and graduated as the best kicker in team history.
[5] In training camp he competed with veteran Mark Moseley for the position, with Mosely ultimately being given the nod.
He kicked in two games for them, but was not impressive on kickoffs, and was released when the team reactivated veteran John Smith from the injured reserve list.
With the Stallions, Miller finally secured a starting job, going 60 for 62 on extra points and 10 for 15 on field goals the remainder of the season.
