Will be interesting to see if his legacy is defined at all by whether or not this team is able to win the title. While Miller is highly respected, I’m not sure Kentucky fans put him in the same category as Chuck Hayes and Tayshaun Prince (even though statistically he is in the neighborhood). If you had to choose your three favorite(or three best?) Wildcats of all time would Miller be there? Hayes and Prince would be for a lot of fans. It’s an interesting topic because his accomplishments certainly justify his inclusion as an all time UK great. The fact that he is not discussed in that light could have less to do with Miller, and more to do with Calipari bringing in more NBA talent in recent years that have overshadowed Miller somewhat. Or based on the comments so far, maybe I’m delusional about how far down the ranks I perceived him to be! Really good discussion… thanks for your comments!

I don’t know any Cat fan that doesn’t hold a tremendous respect for Darius Miller. He’s a humble, quiet leader who cares more about his team than hogging the spot light. He’s one of our heroes, and we wonder why his name isn’t mentioned when the press is noting the NBA scouts in the crowd!

Homegrown KY boy. Plays every position. When we need a score, he will get it. My deceased wife was from Maysville.
