When asked what moment in history he wishes he could have seen, Archie answered, "my little sister win the state championship." |
"We had it going early. It was a mindset to come in here, attack their pressure, and go inside. When we execute well we can score at a high rate. They gave us opportunities to break their press, and our big guys were finishing and we were making open shots." ~Archie Miller on the NC State radio network after NC State's win at ODU; He scored a career high 22 points and was player of the game. |
"When he's on the court, he makes everyone else at least 10% better." ~Coach Herb Sendek on Archie |
"The town I came from is just that type of area that is a very competitive town. My high school team always won, and that is why I think I'm able to play at this level right now, because of where I came from." ~Archie in the 1999-2000 Pack Preview |
"You have to give my dad a lot of credit. Just look at all of his teams and you will see that they enjoy success. My dad has helped my brother, Sean, get to the college level, he got me here playing in the ACC, and now my sister is a freshman playing at Toledo. He really knows what is going on with the game. He is tough, and that is what he preaches to us. The other things that he preaches to us are to respect others, listen, and be easy to coach. Those are the things that I really have to thank him for, not just all the basketball that he taught me." ~Archie on his dad's influence |
"Basketball seems to flow in the bloodlines of the Miller household." ~Brian Reinhardt for Pack Preview 1999-2000 |
"I've been 5-9 for a while, and you kinda get used to it." ~Archie on the advantages of being short |
