A little before my time.

But Ive heard people who went to high school when he was at EJ say he was the best athlete they ever saw

Smooth, smart, athlete, and a solid QB

He was not only a good quarterback, but also a switch hitting shortstop who played two years for the LA Angels.

MMiley was so good that LSU and Charlie Mac changed their offense for the 1974 season; went from the walking I to the veer to make better use of MMiley's skills.

MMiley decided to go play pro baseball and Carl Otis Trimble was the starting veer QB

Sadly, both men died in tragic accidents way too soon.

Whats sports does he play aside from football?

What are his chances being drafted in a sport other than football?

Didn't like playing there. Infield was bumpy. Johnny Bright, Girard, and Cleary were better.

I know I'll get downvoted but wasn't he drinking and driving and had a fatal crash on Highland road leaving a booster's house?

I don't know the details all too well, admittedly but he was a freak of an athlete. Did he go to East Jefferson?
