"I was in my bed, watching them on television," recalls the 22-year-old senior, who could not participate last October because he was sickened with the flu.
Standing 6 feet, 7 inches and weighing more than 300 pounds, Miller says exercise and daily training keep him fit, so when flu shots were administered on campus, he thought he didn't need one.
"I had heard horror stories about the flu," Miller says, "but, I've never gotten very sick, so I didn't worry about it."
That, he says, was not a good play.
