2010: 53 total tackles, 5 tackles for a loss, and 2 sacks.

McMillan has been a linebacker talked about since between his freshman and sophomore year. He is a big kid with a great frame and he is very strong. He is a good striker at linebacker and he can bring that thump when he makes a play. His biggest strength is attacking the ball downhill. He can still improve on his play side to side and his ability to drop back into pass coverage. He is a perfect inside backer that attacks. - Chad Simmons

He is in the 2014 class.  It is a little early for rankings.

Coach Martinez visited Raekwon today. McMillan will be at the Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge in June.

He has 12 offers so far: Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, Miami, and most recently Florida and Florida State.  He has Auburn in his top 5.  Will visit sometime in July.  VanGorder is McMillan's lead recruiter for Auburn.  "I know he coached the Atlanta Falcons, that shows me he knows what he's talking about and he knows what it takes for me to get to the next level."

Said in an interview I read today, he doesn't want to be in Reuben Foster's shadow. They are from the same high school, so whoever gets RF, will not get McMillan in my opinion. Sounds like either one would be an awesome pick up for us.

RM is a year behind RF, and RF will surely leave after three years; so RM could have at least two years without RF if they were both to attend the same university. That might be enough to remove the "shadow".

Then that should be motivation to outshine him, not a reason to avoid the school you may like the best just because someone else is there.

I have no idea how he and Da'Shawn Hand have a relationship, but this is a recent tweet from McMillan. 

------------

"I'm gonna go ahead and say ,, if Da'shawn Hand commits to Ohio State ,, im going too , #BuckeyeNation #gobucks,"

------------

Obviously a long ways to go until that class signs, and you have to take them for what they're worth when it comes to twitter, but it sounds like he's got some serious interest in Ohio St.
