Big Ten Football: Top 10 recruits joining the conference in 2019

For most of last season, Ohio State’s offensive line was ridiculed for their poor performances against defensive lines that were far more inferior than the Buckeyes O-line. Teams like Minnesota and Purdue, exposed the weakness in the Ohio State front and shutdown their running game, forcing the Buckeyes to rely exclusively on quarterback Dwayne Haskins. Ryan Day is quickly addressing this issue and has done so on the recruiting trail, with Harry Miller being a big step.

Miller is a 6-foot-3, 305 pound center from Buford, Georgia. Miller primarily played tackle in high school at Buford High School, but his measurements project him as a center in college and is the second-ranked center in the Class of 2019, according to 247 Sports. Miller will have a chance to compete right away, maybe not as a center, but as an interior offensive lineman as the Buckeyes graduate both of their offensive guards.

Watching tape on Miller, he is as strong as bull and routinely puts defenders on their backs when he is blocking for running plays. In fact, I saw multiple cases where he took out two guys in the same play by blocking one into another, his strength is going to get him ahead of most freshmen. Where I would like to see improvement is his quickness, while he is not slow by any means, everything is quicker at the collegiate level and will need to adjust, such as trap blocks, etc.
