Ahead of the Crimson Tide’s trip to Nashville for the SEC tournament, Miller called the entire situation “really heartbreaking.”
On February 22, Miller said in a statement released by his attorney that he never touched the gun that resulted in the death of Harris. Furthermore, the statement read that the gun was hidden under the clothing in the backseat of Miller’s car. Gunfire also struck the windshield of Miller’s Dodge Charger during the shooting in Tuscaloosa.
Miller was asked his thoughts of the criticism surrounding whether or not he should be playing for Alabama. This comes after Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne talked on a podcast with ESPN’s Rece Davis and Pete Thamel on Feb. 22 and explained the decision to allow Miller to keep playing without suspension. Byrne mentioned that it was a collective decision among him, Alabama head coach Nate Oats, school president Dr. Stuart R. Bell and others at the university.
Oats spoke further about the mental fortitude of his team during this entire situation, but specifically about Miller and his mindset.
