About this item
Arizona. Kentucky. Dayton. It's astounding to think that three elite college basketball programs can trace their success back to a small-town high school coach, Blackhawk High's legendary John Miller. Coach Miller was just following his heart's passion using basketball as a platform for developing young players and future leaders so little did he know that his two boys, Sean and Archie Miller, and their cousin, John Calipari, would grow up to lead those three schools to national prominence. But the same can be said for the doctors, lawyers, school teachers and CEOs he coached during his brilliant career. Even though polio and a subsequent accident left him on his back as a child, Coach Miller fought through adversity with an unbreakable spirit and a relentless will to succeed.
