“A person like me, who supposedly has the entire world in front of them, can be fully prepared to give up the world entire.” he wrote.
Harry Miller, an offensive lineman on Ohio State University’s football team, announced Thursday he was medically retiring in a striking statement in which he discussed how he has thought about taking his own life.. “However, because I have played football, I am no longer afforded the privilege of privacy, so I will share my story briefly before more articles continue to ask, ‘What is wrong with Harry Miller?’ That is a good question.
Miller, who is from Buford, Georgia, said he approached Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day about his mental health struggles last year.Miller wrote that he got help and eventually returned to football “with scars on my wrists and throat.” He said those scars may have been hard to see when the team played or when he was interviewed.“At the time, I would rather be dead than a coward. I’d rather be nothing at all, than have to explain everything that was wrong.
Harry Miller plays in the Big Ten Championship between Ohio State and Northwestern on Dec. 19, 2020, at Lucas Oil stadium, in Indianapolis.Miller, who has been named an OSU Scholar-Athlete for his work in the classroom and helped the Buckeyes win the Big Ten Championship and the Sugar Bowl in 2020, wrote that he has a 4.0 GPA in engineering and the future seemed bright.
“A person like me, who supposedly has the entire world in front of them, can be fully prepared to give up the world entire,” he wrote. “This is not an issue reserved for the far and away. It is in our homes. It is in our conversations. It is in the people we love.” “I am a life preserved by the kindness that was offered to me by others when I could not produce kindness for myself,” he added.“I am grateful for the infrastructure Coach Day has put in place at Ohio State, and I am grateful that he is letting me find a new way to help others in the program,” he wrote. “I hope athletic departments around the country do the same. If not for him and the staff, my words would not be a reflection. They would be evidence in a post-mortem.
