UNC commit Donnie Miles similar to Da'Norris Searcy
Posted Mar 19, 2012
You don't have to go back very far to find someone who most recent commit Donnie Miles resembles and that's former strong safety Da'Norris Searcy who graduated after the 2010 season. The similarities are uncanny actually. Physically, they seem like carbon copies of each other. Both listed at roughly 5-11, 200-pounds. Searcy bulked up a little bit at UNC and played at roughly 220. I expect Miles will likely do the same. Because of his thick build, I expect Miles to grow into the Ram (hybrid LB/DB) position in the 4-2-5 defense.
