Jake Miller Ready to Lead UND

In his freshman season at UND, running back Jake Miller was one of just two freshman to see action.
    In his sophomore campaign he followed up as the starting back in 8 games.

    Miller who used to play for Bismarck High has become a huge player for UND, he was their offensive player of the year last year, he was first team all conference, and was the first player ever to receive Great West Player of the Week honors, three straight weeks.
    Miller is the leader of a group of running backs, who Millers says has a strong mentality who knows what their job is.
    To work, and work hard.

    UND's experience will be needed in their new conference.
    Miller says the team has been expecting the transition to be great, so they've been putting in the work.
    But he also says the team won't go changing things that have already made them successful
