1. Les Miles (LSU): No coach in the country has handled distractions better than Les Miles. Days before his home debut in 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast leaving the region in chaos. The LSU campus was used as a relief center for Katrina victims, and the weight of an entire state was on the shoulders of the LSU football team. All Miles did was lead LSU to a 10-1 regular season record and the Western Division title before being upset by Georgia in the SEC title game.
TNJN - LSU's Miles leads stacked SEC coaching roster. A Tennessee journalist ranks Les Miles as the #1 coach in the SEC, and someone finally gives him credit for his work in 2005 when he faced one of the toughest situations a college football coach has ever faced. After replacing a popular coach, he had to get the team ready to play a season following devastating hurricanes, and responded with an 11-2 season.
