Miller steps in as Miami’s No. 2 fullback
Redshirt freshman Justin Semmes Miller is likely to see his first action in today’s opener at Florida as Miami’s first-string tailback, and RedHawks coach Michael Haywood has said that sophomore Sascha Miller is the new No. 2 fullback.
“Semmes has done a really good job and he’s getting better each and every day,” Haywood said. “Vince Helmuth is a young man who’s been out with an injury for the last week and a half, two weeks, so he hasn’t had any practice. Sascha Miller has stepped in as a two.”
This is primarily a blocking position for the RedHawks, though Miller, who joined the RedHawks in 2008 as a walk-on, did average more than 10 yards per carry at Afnorth High School in Las Vegas, Nev., Semmes once scored five touchdowns in a playoff game at St. Mary’s High School in Clarkson, Mich., and Helmuth, the University of Michigan transfer, rushed for 1,536 yards and 22 touchdowns as an all-state fullback at Saline High School in Ann Arbor.
