HIGH SCHOOL: His 2003 honors included Super Prep All-American, Prep Star All-American, Super Prep All-Farwest, Prep Star All-West, Cal-Hi Sports All-State first team, Long Beach Press-Telegram Best in the West honorable mention, Tacoma News Tribune Western 100, Orange County Register Fab 15 second team, All-CIF Southern Section first team, All-CIF Division IV Defensive MVP, Los Angeles Times All-Star, Los Angeles Times All-Ventura/North Coast Lineman of the Year and Daily News All-Valley first team as a senior tight end and defensive end at Westlake High in Westlake Village (Calif.).

He caught 12 passes for 200 yards (16.7 avg.) with 1 TD on offense in 2002 and posted 80 tackles, 33 tackles for loss, 18.5 sacks and 14 deflections on defense.
PERSONAL: He[apos]s a sociology major at USC. His brother, Jeff, is a sophomore defensive tackle at UCLA. He grew up in Texas before moving to California in the late 1990s.
JIMMY MILLER ON: The possibility of lining up opposite his brother, Jeff, in the UCLA game: 'It[apos]d be interesting to see what would happen if we got matched up against each other. Once we got in the game, he[apos]d be like any other player. I guess you[apos]d just have to play the game and beat the guy across from you. After the game I[apos]m sure we[apos]d talk about everything that happened on the field. When he signed with UCLA, I called him to congratulate him because getting a Division I scholarship is a big deal. But then I said, [apos]Once a year, we[apos]re not going to be able to talk to each other because USC and UCLA is a big rivalry.[apos]'
