It isn't a BYU fan making the claim. It is a big self professed Ute fan/media member making the comparison.
So to you Utes that this pisses off, remember that it is your guy Fox that said it...not an Alema Harrison or anonymous Cougarboard poster.
I don't think Jimmer is an Andre Miller-type player yet. I think it is fair to say he is more of a scoring threat, but not the general that Miller was. Miller didn't have to put up big numbers points wise with the team he had around him. He also had legitimate inside threats in Doleac, Britton, and KVH. BYU has ZERO inside threat. This makes Jimmer's offense more important.
I don't know if Jimmer will ever have the success or be the true PG Miller was. But to you yewties, don't get too defensive here. It was one of your own that made the comparison.
