How'd He Get to College Park?
Miles didn't take the typical path to a spot on Maryland's football team. After graduating high school, Miles joined the Army and served for four years, earning an astounding number of medals while deployed in Afghanistan:
- National Defense Medal
- Army Service Ribbon
- Overseas Ribbon
- Global War on Terrorism Medal
- Afghanistan Campaign with Star Ribbon
- Good Conduct Medal
- Army Achievement Medal
- Army Commendation Medal
- Combat Action Badge
- Meritorious Unit Citation
- Expert Rifleman Badge
He made the team as a 22-year-old walk-on freshman in 2013, but the NCAA ruled him ineligible because he had not taken the necessary core classes in high school. Maryland filed a waiver on his behalf and Miles was cleared to practice but not play in games.
After two season with the program, Miles has yet to see the field in a game. He has served as a member of the scout team offense and special teams squads.
Career Highlight:
Being cleared by the NCAA to play college football.
Dream Season:
Miles sees collegiate playing time.
2015 Prospectus:
Miles probably won't see any time on offense, but as a junior could realistically become a regular special teams contributor. He has the raw strength and athleticism to chase down and lay out kick and punt returners.
Up Next:
Our next subject caught his first career pass in 2014 against Wisconsin.
