Meyer Denies Miller Departure

Ohio State is going to have quite the quarterback controversy next season, it would appear. 

Despite persisting rumors that Braxton Miller would consider transferring to another school next season, head coach Urban Meyer said he expects Miller to return to Ohio State, per Stewart Mandel of Fox Sports:

Miller could transfer to another school without needing to sit out a year since he already graduated, and after J.T. Barrett's Heisman-esque season, many folks thought Miller would choose to leave Ohio State. The Buckeyes also have Cardale Jones in the fold, who played well in the Big Ten title game.    

According to Tom D'Angelo of the Palm Beach Post, Miller has been linked to Florida State, Oregon, Mississippi and Duke. He has thrown for 5,292 yards, 52 touchdowns and 17 interceptions in three seasons at Ohio State while also rushing for 3,054 yards and 32 scores, so most schools in the nation would welcome him with open arms.

If Miller chooses to transfer, Bleacher Report CFB analyst Adam Kramer believes Oregon would be the quarterback's top potential destination with Marcus Mariota set to turn pro:

He was in the 2014 preseason Heisman discussion before injuring his shoulder during an August practice. The injury has kept him on the sidelines for the entire season. 

It appears he won't be leaving the Buckeyes, however, which should make for quite the quarterback battle for the starting gig next season. Ohio State will be testing the theory that you can never have too much of a good thing.
