Common Bermuda is popular here it will cover quickly and provide grazing until the Bahia eventually chokes it out.

Brown top is excellent for planting with Bahia

I've used Tiftleaf 3 millet and it worked well and never missed any grazing.

You are being instructed correctly. BRown top millet is what UF's facility in Ona has recommended for Bahia in the past for me. I think I used 10 lbs per acre and kept it mowed when it reached 6 inches. It grows quickly and can give too much shade if left to grow to maturity.
