Miller played college football for the Oklahoma State Cowboys. He was a twice All-American in 1976 and 1977 and finished second in the 1977 Heisman Trophy voting to winner Earl Campbell.[1]
Miller ran for 1,060 yards in his NFL rookie season, but had only 484 total rushing yards in his second season (second to Bills fullback Curtis Brown).[2] By 1980, with Buffalo having found a star in rookie running back Joe Cribbs, Miller was relegated to mostly Kickoff returner duty.[3] Terry was voted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2022.[4]
