Miller came to Wichita after four seasons as an assistant coach at the NJCAA level, most recently in a second stint at Johnson County Community College. In 2023, Miller and the Cavaliers reached the NJCAA D1 World Series for the third time in program history and the first time since 2014. JCCC went 56-10, including a 30-3 mark in Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference play. 14 Cavaliers were named to the All-KJCCC East Division Team, including conference Pitcher of the Year Luc Fladda and Co-Freshman of the Year Dagen Brewer.
 
Johnson County finished second in the country with a .364 team batting average, fourth with a .466 on-base percentage, and sixth with 597 runs scored. As a team, the Cavaliers drew nearly as many walks (336) as they had strikeouts (346). On the mound, JCCC's 3.80 ERA ranked eighth nationally, piling up 601 strikeouts to finish fourth in the country. The Cavaliers team fielding percentage of .976 was the second-best mark in NJCAA Division 1.
 
Miller returned to Johnson County after two seasons a volunteer coach at McLennan Community College in Waco, Texas under current Baylor head coach Mitch Thompson. Miller helped the Highlanders to consecutive NJCAA World Series appearances, highlighted by a national championship in 2021. During his time in Waco, Miller and McLennan compiled a 97-29 overall record (.770 winning percentage), four NJCAA All-Americans and three MLB draft picks.
 
A former All-American as a player at Johnson County, Miller returned to his alma mater to begin his coaching career in 2020. The Cavaliers were 20-3 with a top-10 national ranking before the season was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
All told in four seasons as an assistant, Miller's teams have combined for a record of 173-42, good for a winning percentage of .805.
 
As a player with the Cavaliers, Miller was a Second Team NJCAA All-American as a sophomore in 2015, hitting .443 with a school-record 26 home runs. He was drafted in the 18th round by the Cleveland Indians, where he played five seasons in their minor league system. Miller ultimately reached Double-A in 2019, and finished his professional playing career with 25 home runs and 117 RBI in 310 career games.
 
A native of Stilwell, Kansas, Miller was a three-sport star at Blue Valley Southwest High School before beginning his collegiate career at Johnson County. He is married to the former Emily Eldridge.
