===San Jose Sabercats===

With a large player pool available in the draft, many spots to fill and inconclusive scouting the inaugural draft was a shot in the dark for many teams. People had many questions marks with Bavitz and even recording the best vertical jump of the whole combine was not able to raise his stock too high and he was eventually taken with 37th pick of the draft The Otters would finish with a 9-5 record and make it to the ASFC Championship game, where they would lose to the eventual Ultimus winners, the Arizona Outlaws. Bavitz would establish himself as a standout player on the defensive side of the ball and earn his first Pro Bowl designation.
+
With a large player pool available in the draft, many spots to fill and inconclusive scouting the inaugural draft was a shot in the dark for many teams. Miller was able to impress scouts with a bench press result of 47, that was also good for the best result of the whole combine, but being a defensive tackle, Miller was only drafted by the San Jose Sabercats, with the 88th overall pick. The Sabercats would have growing pains and finish with a disappointing 4-10 record and miss out on the playoffs. Miller would have a middle of the pack season, recording 51 tackles, four tackles for loss and 10 sacks.
−
 
 
−
2017 saw the Otters unable to improve their record, going 8-6 in the regular season and losing to the Outlaws again in the ASFC Championship game in a close 17-13 loss. Bavitz would improve on his impressive play from his rookie season with 12 total sacks coupled with 96 tackles. Surprisingly this improvement was not enough for Bavitz to make the 2017 Pro Bowl, which still seems strange to this day and is the only season in his career, where he did not make the Pro Bowl.
 
  
−
Certain patterns were emerging over the first three seasons in the NSFL and Orange County was a large part of them. In their third season they yet again finished with a winning 8-6 record, but disappointing considering the level of talent. They would yet again lose to the Outlaws in the ASFC Championship game. In a similar way, Bavitz continued his impressive play with new personal records in tackles, tackles for loss and passes defended and really cementing his place on the list of top defensive player in the NSFL. His play was further recognized when he earned his third Pro Bowl designation.
+
{{nsfly|2}} saw the addition of two new expansion teams to the league, but that did not affect the Sabercats as they finished with the same disappointing 4-10 record, and again missed the playoffs. Miller did not help out his team's cause as his play did not improve and it also showed in the statistics, which were stagnant apart from tackles which surprisingly dropped. {{nsfly|3}} was a totally different season for Miller who had a career year and would be the best season of his career and also earn his first Pro Bowl award. He would record 81 tackles, 3 tackles for loss 4 forced fumbles and 24 sacks, which was a league record at the time. This was not enough to help the Sabercats make it to the playoffs, but they would improve their record to 5-8-1.
  
−
The 2019 season was the first of many great seasons for the Otters, but for Bavitz it seemed like nothing had changed. He continued his high level of play, eclipsing his previous single season tackle record of 111 and posting a new personal all time high of 118, a personal record which he would never break. The Otters with league leading quarterback Mike Boss and Bavitz along with the rest of their team would change their fortunes after defeating their long time rivals, the Outlaws, 27-9 in the ASFC Championship game. Bavitz lead the way on defense with 8 tackles and sacking King Bronko twice. Bavitz and the Otters would not be stopped as they defeated the Yellowknife Wraiths 30-23 in Ultimus Bowl IV with Bavitz contributing 8 tackles, a sack, a tackle for loss and two passes defended.
+
The {{nsfly|4}} season was a huge improvement for the Sabercats and their league-leading defence. With certain position switches, the Sabercats would go 9-5 in the regular season and finish tied with the Orange County Otters for second in their conference, but with a worse point differential, they would lose the tiebreaker and heartbreakingly miss the playoffs. Miller would contribute to this ferocious defence recording 52 tackles, 2 fumble recoveries and 16 tackles, and his second straight Pro Bowl designation. The {{nsfly|5}} season would be much of the same for the Sabercats as they would have one of, if not the best defences in the league led by Miller. He would not have one of his best seasons statistically, but would still earn a Pro Bowl award. The Sabercats would go 8-6 and be tied with the {{tf|ARI}} for second in the [[ASFC]], but again lose out on a playoff spot due to their worse point differential.
  
−
With their first rings, the Otters - and Bavitz - continued their high-level play in 2020, finishing 11-3 in the regular season and demolishing the Outlaws 43-19 in the ASFC Championship game, which had fully flipped on its head. The Otters defeated the Yellowknife Wraiths in their rematch to win their second Ultimus trophy. This time the Otters defense was a key part in the victory, and Bavitz leading the way and stuffing the stat sheet with 9 tackles and a tackle for loss, sack, pass defended and a key interception during the first quarter to place his marker on the game and give the Otters momentum. 2021 was much of the same for the Otters on many fronts as they would again finish with an 11-3 record and Bavitz dominating on the defensive side of the ball, getting his 5th Pro Bowl nod. The only difference was that Bavitz had switched over to playing mostly free safety and notched a career high 6 interceptions through the season. Moving on the playoffs,this time the Otters would face a new opponent in the ASFC Championship Game in the San Jose Sabercats and escape with a narrow 32-29 victory where Bavitz managed to score an all important safety in the 4th quarter. They would then defeat the Philadelphia Liberty in Ultimus Bowl VI and complete their first three peat by winning three consecutive championships in the NSFL.
+
The {{nsfly|6}} season was a huge improvement for the Sabercats and Miller compared to the previous season. They would go 11-3 in the regular season and finally make the playoffs for the first time in their franchise history. Miller would improve across all statistical categories compared to previous seasons and again earn a Pro Bowl designation. Sadly the Sabercats would end up losing to the {{tf|OCO}} in the first round of the playoffs, with the Otters hitting the game-winning field goal with 34 seconds remaining. This would end up being Miller's last season in San Jose as he was traded to the {{tf|COL}} for the {{nsfly|7}} season
  
−
The Otters went through significant player overturn in 20220, but that didn't affect the teams or Bavitz’s safety play at all. Bavitz was a complete defensive force through the season, leading the league with 8 interceptions and 2 defensive touchdowns, as well as having 13 sacks. His high level of play earned him both the Defensive Back of the Year award along with the Defensive Player of the Year award, making it his most successful season from a personal accolade viewpoint. The Otters would go 13-1 in the regular season and defeat their rivals, the Outlaws, 48-24 in the ASFC Championship Game. Looking for his and the Otters record fourth championship in a row, to fully cement their dynasty, they were stunned after the Philadelphia Liberty returned the opening kick-off 103 yards for a touchdown. They would never come back from this and end up losing 28-19 in Ultimus Bowl VII.
+
===Colorado Yeti===
 +
Colorado had endured a winless {{nsfly|6|nolink}} season and hoped Miller could add to their defence and help their fortunes. In the end, Colorado would continue their awful record into the {{nsfly|7|nolink}} season and end up being winless across two seasons. They would end up having the worst defence in the league, although Miller would try his best to help the Yeti out, and would end up garnering his fifth straight Pro Bowl award. The {{nsfly|8}} season would be a huge improvement for the Yeti and they would have a fearsome run defence, led by the Miller who would earn his 6th straight and final Pro Bowl award. The Yeti would finish 6-8 and put their winless seasons behind them. The {{nsfly|9}} season would bring the Yeti back to the playoffs on the back of an 8-6 regular season. They would ultimately end up losing to the {{tf|BAL}} in the first round of the playoffs by a score of 40-34. This would end up being Miller's last season in the NSFL, but he would leave with a bang, recording his second-highest season sack total of 19.
  
−
The 2023 season involved changes in the front office along with a blockbuster trade for safety Jaylon Broxton and would ultimately turn out to be Bravitz’s last season in the league. His age would start to show and his usually amazing stat lines would not be the same. He helped the Otters to a 10-4 record in the regular season, but would lose to the New Orleans Second Line in the ASFC Championship Game. With his defensive player of the year award, three NSFL rings and being a force as a linebacker and a safety, Ian Bavitz was inducted into the NSFL Hall of Fame in 2027

San Jose Sabercats

With a large player pool available in the draft, many spots to fill and inconclusive scouting the inaugural draft was a shot in the dark for many teams. Miller was able to impress scouts with a bench press result of 47, that was also good for the best result of the whole combine, but being a defensive tackle, Miller was only drafted by the San Jose Sabercats, with the 88th overall pick. The Sabercats would have growing pains and finish with a disappointing 4-10 record and miss out on the playoffs. Miller would have a middle of the pack season, recording 51 tackles, four tackles for loss and 10 sacks.

2017 (S2) saw the addition of two new expansion teams to the league, but that did not affect the Sabercats as they finished with the same disappointing 4-10 record, and again missed the playoffs. Miller did not help out his team's cause as his play did not improve and it also showed in the statistics, which were stagnant apart from tackles which surprisingly dropped. 2018 (S3) was a totally different season for Miller who had a career year and would be the best season of his career and also earn his first Pro Bowl award. He would record 81 tackles, 3 tackles for loss 4 forced fumbles and 24 sacks, which was a league record at the time. This was not enough to help the Sabercats make it to the playoffs, but they would improve their record to 5-8-1.

The 2019 (S4) season was a huge improvement for the Sabercats and their league-leading defence. With certain position switches, the Sabercats would go 9-5 in the regular season and finish tied with the Orange County Otters for second in their conference, but with a worse point differential, they would lose the tiebreaker and heartbreakingly miss the playoffs. Miller would contribute to this ferocious defence recording 52 tackles, 2 fumble recoveries and 16 tackles, and his second straight Pro Bowl designation. The 2020 (S5) season would be much of the same for the Sabercats as they would have one of, if not the best defences in the league led by Miller. He would not have one of his best seasons statistically, but would still earn a Pro Bowl award. The Sabercats would go 8-6 and be tied with the Arizona Outlaws for second in the ASFC, but again lose out on a playoff spot due to their worse point differential.

The 2021 (S6) season was a huge improvement for the Sabercats and Miller compared to the previous season. They would go 11-3 in the regular season and finally make the playoffs for the first time in their franchise history. Miller would improve across all statistical categories compared to previous seasons and again earn a Pro Bowl designation. Sadly the Sabercats would end up losing to the Orange County Otters in the first round of the playoffs, with the Otters hitting the game-winning field goal with 34 seconds remaining. This would end up being Miller's last season in San Jose as he was traded to the Colorado Yeti for the 2022 (S7) season

Colorado Yeti

Colorado had endured a winless 2021 season and hoped Miller could add to their defence and help their fortunes. In the end, Colorado would continue their awful record into the 2022 season and end up being winless across two seasons. They would end up having the worst defence in the league, although Miller would try his best to help the Yeti out, and would end up garnering his fifth straight Pro Bowl award. The 2023 (S8) season would be a huge improvement for the Yeti and they would have a fearsome run defence, led by the Miller who would earn his 6th straight and final Pro Bowl award. The Yeti would finish 6-8 and put their winless seasons behind them. The 2024 (S9) season would bring the Yeti back to the playoffs on the back of an 8-6 regular season. They would ultimately end up losing to the Baltimore Hawks in the first round of the playoffs by a score of 40-34. This would end up being Miller's last season in the NSFL, but he would leave with a bang, recording his second-highest season sack total of 19.
