The South Carolina crowd hit the forward with chants of “Lock him up.”

Well, the jeering and jeering didn’t seem to affect him much, and if it did, it was only positive. Miller scored 41 points in Bama’s 78-76 overtime win, including the game-winning shot.

The police have said that “there is nothing we can collect [Miller] with “, although Darius Miles has been charged with capital murder. Miles was fired from the team after it was revealed that he was allegedly involved in the shooting. Miller gave the gun to Miles, who admitted to giving the gun to Michael “Buzz” Davis…

Det. Branden Culpepper said Miller arrived on the scene and Miles told Davis, “The heat is in the hat,” referencing the gun, according to AL.com. He also said, “There’s one in the head,” which means there was a bullet in the chamber.

“I can’t control everything that everybody does outside of practice. Nobody knew that was going to happen,” head coach Nate Oats said Tuesday. “Colleges are out. Brandon hasn’t gotten himself into any kind of trouble and he’s not in any kind of trouble on this case. Wrong place, wrong time.”

Court records say Davis fired the fatal shots, but Miles “intentionally caused” the death of Jamea Harris by “aiding and abetting by providing a firearm.”
