🔼 Too Tall? Nah, Just Right. A love affair with football began for a very tall man at a very small age.
Auburn senior offensive lineman Izavion “Too Tall” Miller has found his heart in the gridiron game.
“I’ve been playing football since I was 6,” the Memphis native recalled.
After earning NJCAA all-region and all-Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference (MACCC) honors and preseason All-America recognition, Miller arrived at Auburn before the 2023 season and earned the starting nod at right tackle for every game last year.
“I love the game of football,” Miller said. “I love it. I love the physicality – being physical and being free out there on the field. The game is deep in my heart.”
Read On the Plains With Izavion Miller for more on how the coaches drew him to Auburn, his own coaching aspirations and his NFL goals.
