I guess we’ll really get a chance to see how much pull Darnell Dockett has. Braxton Miller is in a tricky situation at Ohio State, but one he has control over. Because of Miller’s shoulder injury and the emergence of both JT Barrett and Cardale Jones.
Because Miller has graduated from Ohio State, he can transfer to the university of his choice, as long as the grad program he chooses is not offered at Ohio State. With reports of Miller eyeing FSU, LSU, Duke and Oregon among others, former Seminoles standout Darnell Dockett is playing recruiter.
Dockett even promised to make sure Miller had no issues in Tallahassee.
I asked God for strength, and God gave me more difficulties to make me stronger.

It remains unclear if Miller will actually leave Ohio State for another program. Oregon and FSU automatically become playoff contenders if he replaces either Heisman winner. Miller would be the ultimate competitor if he stayed at Ohio State and battled for his job.
FSU offers him the easiest path to starting again.
