Alabama freshman Brandon Miller, whose tremendous season on the court has been clouded by controversy off it, is the Associated Press player of the year and newcomer of the year in the SEC.
The AP released the results one day after Miller also was announced as the winner of the SEC's player of the year and freshman of the year awards, as voted on by the league's 14 coaches.
Miller was a first-team pick on all but one AP ballot and received 12 out of a possible 14 player of the year votes and 11 as top newcomer for the regular-season SEC champion and No.
