Chris Miller has served as the Head Football Coach at Seminole High School since 2013. In that time, he has led the Warhawks to their first playoff appearance in over a decade. Lifted the number of players in the program from 17-120. Sent dozens of players off to play college football. Coached current Pittsburgh Steelers offensive lineman Brandon Walton. Established youth players and coach’s clinic and coordinated an offense that broke a school record for yardage.
Prior to Seminole, Coach Miller worked for 10 years as a teacher and coach at Admiral Farragut Academy in St. Petersburg Florida. After two seasons as an assistant, Miller was promoted to Head Coach at the age of 22 – the youngest in Florida. Much like Seminole, Admiral Farragut was a fledging program with only a handful of winning seasons under its belt with no playoff victories in more than 80 seasons. Miller re-energized the program by doubling the roster size, changing the uniforms, installing a new offense and defense while establishing a highly organized, structed environment for his players to thrive in.
Over the course of eight seasons as head coach, Miller recorded a 48-34 record, which included three consecutive playoff appearances and a trip to the Florida State Championship game in 2011.
