Larger than life is a great way to describe Oliver Miller's Razorback career. An all-time fan favorite, Miller was always the showman. His on-court play fired up crowds in Barnhill Arena, too. Miller still holds the school records for career blocks and field goal percentage, and was part of a new era of Triplets—alongside Todd Day and Lee Mayberry—that won three Southwest Conference titles and made it to the 1990 Final Four. But he also helped lead the Razorbacks into the SEC, winning the league title over LSU and Shaquille O'Neal in 1992. Miller finished his Razorback career ranked inside the top 10 on the all-time scoring list, and was a first-round draft pick by the Phoenix Suns in 1992. Alongside Charles Barkley, Miller made it to the NBA Finals against Michael Jordan and the Bulls as a rookie. But it wasn't all fun and games for the entertaining big man. He battled weight issues throughout his career. First a bad perception in college, then reality in the NBA. But Miller was able to overcome it, and played for nine seasons in the NBA. Now retired, happy and healthy, Miller looks back fondly on his time with the Razorbacks and the fans who still hold a special place in his heart.
