One of the most dominant linebackers ever to wear the Red and White, McMillan instilled fear in the hearts of Miami's football opponents from 1989-92. A first-team All-American by Gannett News in 1992, as well as a third-team Associated Press All-American, McMillan led the nation in tackles per game as a junior and senior.

He was twice named the Mid-American Conference Defensive Player of the Year and still holds Miami's career record of 575 tackles, including 297 solo stops. Through 33 career starts, McMillan had 10 or more tackles 31 times, including a string of 26 straight games with at least 10 stops. The 1992 Dick Butkus Award candidate topped the 20-tackle mark nine times during his junior and senior seasons.

McMillan resides in Upper Sandusky, Ohio.
