What do you think he meant by that?
It’s a pat down, which is something you do to find any potentially concealed items. If they’ve been doing that all year it’s an extreme coincidence. Still, I’d take him if he falls. But Masai probably not so much
Yep. it's a pat down. 1. He allowed himself to be pat down. 2. They found nothing and let him go. He's saying I have nothing to hide. They checked me. Then they let me go. He's making a statement to leave his ass alone. He's not going to fall.
I was curious what people thought he was saying? I was expecting a Gilbert Arenas bang bang nonsense then I would say it's tasteless but this is fine. The young man is under a ton of pressure and he's handling it pretty well by letting his play do the talking.
100%
As more facts come out you can see the damage irresponsible reporting that initially came out implying he knowingly delivered a gun and intentionally blocked in the vehicle the victim was riding in has done to his reputation.
Miller’s role in all this is clearly laid out by text messages and video. He’s not lying, there is no dirty SEC school coverup to protect a star, he was not engaged in any criminal activity.
Some notable facts backed by text messages and video surveillance:
1. Miles had wanted to be picked up for "close to an hour" before Miller made his way over.
2. Miller was already on his way to pick up Miles when Miles texted him to bring him his gun on the night of the shooting.
3. Miller never saw Miles' handgun and that it was "concealed under some clothing in the back seat" of Miller's car.
4. Miller never touched the gun or was involved in its exchange to Davis, the alleged shooter.
5. Miller was unaware of the confrontation between the two parties.
6. Miller didn't get out of his car.
7. Miller had already parked it when Johnson's Jeep later pulled up behind him, thereby not intentionally blocking its exit.
8. Miller, whose windshield was hit by gunfire, left when the shooting started.

It’s a tragic situation but Miller doesn’t appear to have done anything knowingly or intentionally wrong. If he did, he’d be charged. This is a capital murder case, it doesn’t get much more serious. Based on all the information uncovered throughout the investigation by police and the school, and again backed by physical evidence of text and video, Miller is a cooperative witness. No one should be penalized for the stupidity of a (now former) teammate.
