Williams on Miller: "Danny did a lot of things for us last year that normally didn't show up on the scoreboard. He's very versatile. He's almost like a utility infielder in baseball where he plays a lot of positions for you and doesn't get a lot of recognition. He had some big games for us. He was able to step up his offense when we needed him. This is a big year for Danny as a junior in the program, having played a lot last year as a starter and really contributing the year before as a freshman. Now we expect him to take it to the next level this year."
