At the Carl Lewis Invitational his freshman year, CaDarius McMiller ran the indoor 60 meters in 6.97, a personal record.
McMiller, 6-1, 195, committed to the Ducks on Saturday, their fifth commitment of the 2027 class. He's the latest in a series of promising Texas running backs to fly north for college football. All-time great LaMichael James and Tradarian Ball hail from Texarkana, about two hours northeast up State Highway 155N.
James ran his best time in the 60 as a redshirt freshman at Oregon, 6.77 seconds at the Husky Classic in Seattle. McMiller, four years younger than LMJ was then, only needs to gain a stride and a half to catch him.
