While Harry Miller hasn't yet been able to play on the field for Ohio State this season, that hasn't stopped him from making a big impact off the field.
Miller was named Friday as one of 22 members of this year's AFCA Good Works Team, which honors college football players who have made a big impact off the field through their dedication to community service.

Now that athletes are allowed to be paid for their name, image and likeness, Allstate – the presenting sponsor of the AFCA Good Works Team – has pledged to give $1 million to be split among the members of the Good Works Team and non-profits of their choice.
Miller was selected for the Good Works Team in recognition of his work through Mission 4 Nicaragua, a non-profit on which he serves as a board member. Miller has made nearly a dozen trips to Nicaragua over the past seven years to help operate a school and distribute food and medicine to underprivileged families in Los Brasiles, Nicaragua. Most recently, Miller used his NIL to sell apparel that raised more than $1,000 for Mission 4 Nicaragua.
On the field, Miller was expected to be Ohio State's starting center this season after starting six games on the Buckeyes' interior offensive line in 2020. He hasn't yet played this season, however, as he's been unavailable for the first three games with Luke Wypler starting in his place.
