Getting that team together and enabling them to focus after the biggest hurricane this country has ever seen was nothing short of incredible.


Everybody remembers Katrina but they forget about Rita & that was a devastating hurricane as well in just a less populated area but it still had an effect. Rita was also the reason the Tennessee game was played on a Monday night. I totally agree with your post though. To make it to SEC Championship with all the distractions, turmoil & no bye week to rest was simply remarkable. Miles doesn't get enough credit for that season.

Winds from Rita were worse in BR than the winds from Katrina, and they came from the southeast, while Katrina was from the northeast.

Basically, all the trees that weren't knocked down by Katrina were taken by Rita a month later.

And we wonder why some people didn't have power for 2 months.
