He wears a maroon-and-white jersey manufactured by Adidas, leads a hyperactive offense with title aspirations and is the starting quarterback at A&M.

Except his name is not Johnny Manziel.

Less than three miles from Texas A&M’s Kyle Field, where Manziel, the Aggies’ Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback, hopes to overwhelm — or at least irritate — No. 1 Alabama on Saturday with his legs, his throwing arm and perhaps his vocal cords, quarterback Kobe Miller has been leading A&M Consolidated High School.

“I don’t really get much attention from fans,” he said.

Miller, a senior who has spent his entire life in College Station, understands that it is a fluke for him to share a position in the same city as one of the most famous and polarizing athletes in the country.

Their circumstances could not be more different, after all. Miller, 17, can grab a sandwich without being stalked by an inquiring public. He is in the process of applying to colleges. He is not in the habit of signing autographs, and even if he were, nobody would try to sell them.
