Brandon Jordan, the freshman basketball star at the University of Alabama, has reported receiving direct death threats following his team’s victory over Texas A&M Corpus Christi.
Coach Nate Oats had previously disclosed that Miller had been receiving such threats in response to the player being seen with a security guard during a practice session ahead of the NCAA Tournament.
It is unclear who sent him the threat or about from where the calls were sent. But such incidents are taken very seriously and can significantly impact the safety and well-being of the individuals involved.
When asked how he felt about the threats, the player responded, “It doesn’t matter; I sent it to the right people.”
“All teams travel with security guards, whether you see them or not,” Miller said. “Y’all just happened to see him at a certain time. That’s the thing about that.”
Miller has faced criticism and backlash following recent court testimony from a Tuscaloosa Police detective, which might have also been one reason he has been meeting the threats.
The investigation is ongoing following the murder threats, and he has been sent protection. So, more information regarding the case might be revealed soon.
