The most successful high school basketball coach in Alabama High School Athletic Association history is hanging up his whistle, trading it for a “desk” job a few miles down the road.
Tim Miller, who led three different teams to 11 state championships, is retiring at Hazel Green to become the athletic director at St. John Paul II in Huntsville. His new position became official Wednesday.
“It’s time for a new challenge,” said Miller, who took teams to 20 AHSAA final fours in 26 years as a head coach. “It’s the right time and this opportunity came along and I just couldn’t turn it down. I’ve had a heckuva run here and a heckuva career. It’s time to try something else.”
