Miller says he had 'successful' visit with doctor (Updated)

Not long after his coach said he was "pretty close to full speed," Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller said he had a successful visit with Dr. James Andrews.

The location of Andrews' office in Birmingham, Alabama, has previously helped elicit transfer rumors. Those rumors have been proven to be unfounded so far. But given what Miller said to the Columbus Dispatch after his tweet, there are going to be some Ohio State fans on pins and needles.

From the Dispatch:

In response to a question from The Dispatch about what it means for his future, Miller wrote back that he expects to announce his immediate plans next week. As a recent graduate, Miller has the option to transfer and play elsewhere immediately for his final season; though Meyer and others have said they expect Miller back, he has never formally announced his intentions.

Ooohhh ... "immediate plans." Start the rumor mill!

No. Please. Don't restart the rumor mill. ESPN's Joe Schad tweeted Thursday afternoon that Miller is planning on staying at Ohio State.

If it's true, and we have no reason to think it isn't, we'll likely have an official answer in the form of a statement from the university and Miller in the near future.
