Penn State Recruiting: Interview with Josh Miller, Penn State commit for 2023
21Penn State recruiting got off to an early start in the Class of 2023 with three-star lineman from Virginia, Josh Miller. The Life Christian Academy right tackle chose Penn State over Clemson and had Virginia Tech, North Carolina, and Tennessee in his top five schools. So what has Miller been doing since his December 20th announcement? Host of the BWI Daily Edition, Thomas Frank Carr, invited him on the show to get a better feel for Miller as a person, player, and prospect.
They start with breaking news at the time of recording, which was that fellow offensive line commit for the Class of 2023, Jven Williams, was named a five-star prospect by On3. Miller and fellow linemen Alex Birchmeier and Anthony Donkoh recruited Williams to Penn State, so T-Frank asks for Miller's opinion on the matter. Next, he asks what the relationship with the linemen in the class is like and how they get along.
From there, T-Frank asks Miller what sort of sports or activities he's up to at this time of year. Miller gives him an account of where he's at physically, what kind of training he's doing and what sports he's playing. After mentioning that he's working on the mental side of the game, T-Frank asks which players he's watching on film to get better. Miller notes college and NFL offensive linemen and peers as well.
Naturally, that brings T-Frank to the question of peer recruiting. So who is Miller talking to, and who does he want to join the Nittany Lions in the class? The Colonial Heights native mentions a few names he's been communicating with about joining the group.
From there, they talk about Miller's game and what T-Frank has seen of him on film. T-Frank comments that Miller is an advanced technician for his age as a pass protector, and the rising senior lets T-Frank know who he's trained with and how he's matured at the position. Next, they go over another area of strength that Miller shows on film before T-Frank asks him what he's been working on to improve this offseason.
Finally, they spend a few minutes discussing Miller's hobbies outside of football. Finally, T-Frank asks him what he'd like to study at Penn State, and Miller blows him away with the 'why' behind his desire to study psychology at Penn State.
