Miller Wins Mackey

Heath Miller won the prestigious John Mackey award yesterday. The what, you ask? You know, the Mackey award, given out to the nation's top tight end. Oh, that one.

Anyway, while it's not really a household name award, it is a good one and it's the only national award an ACC player is going to win.

Miller, a junior, actually didn't have as a good a year statistically as he did last year. In many ways this award, like a lot of them, was a bit of a career achievement award. When the Cavs did throw the ball his way, he made some great plays, but they didn't feature him as much as in his previous two years.

Still, Miller's a good guy and a great tight end, so congratulations Heath!
