Nancy Miller, a UNF Athletic Hall of Famer and former standout women's basketball player and coach for the Ospreys, moved into the administration side of athletics in the Summer of 2015 taking a the position of compliance coordinator and academic specialist and was promoted to Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance in February of 2016. In October of 2021, Miller was promoted to Associate AD for Compliance and Administration.
 
In her role, Miller is responsible for day-to-day NCAA and university compliance, financial aid, admissions and has sport oversight of nine of the department’s 19 sports:  swimming, cross country, track & field and men’s and women’s golf programs.  She is actively involved with university-wide activities and served as the Administration and Professional Association President from 2016-2020.

Miller has been part of Osprey Athletics for almost 30 years, having started her affiliation with UNF as a member of the inaugural women’s basketball team in 1992. She then transitioned into a coaching role, serving as an assistant for 19 seasons.
 
As a player at UNF, Miller found much success both in the classroom and on the hardwood, setting the bar for future student-athletes. Academically, she was a Rhodes Scholarship State Finalist and graduated Summa Cum Laude. She was one of 10 recipients of the 1996 NCAA Women’s Enhancement Postgraduate Scholarship to which she used to earn her master’s degree. Additionally, Miller was named UNF Student-Athlete of the Year in 1995.
 
Athletically, Miller reached new heights in the program’s early years. She was the first UNF player - men’s or women’s - to score 1,000 career points, accomplishing that feat as a junior. Miller went on to finish her career with 1,269 points and currently ranks third on UNF’s all-time list. Many of her career scoring marks still rank in UNF’s record book. A two-time All-Sunshine State Conference selection, Miller was inducted into the UNF Athletics Hall of Fame in 2009.

Born in Seattle, Miller resides in Jacksonville. She enjoys spending time with her family, reading, working out and running.  A new passion is volunteering her time with her 6-year-old Golden Retriever, “Hooper”, as a registered animal-assisted therapy team.  The two spend a majority of their time volunteering as a “Caring Canine” team at the Mayo Clinic and Miller recently was instrumental in helping launch UNF’s first animal-assisted therapy team, the UNF Campus Canines, in Fall 2021.
