Trent Gaylord Miles (born July 29, 1963) is an American football coach and former player. He was most recently the head football coach at Georgia State University, a position he assumed in November 2012 and held until he was fired on November 12, 2016. Miles was previously the head coach at Indiana State University from 2008 to 2012. "He is a graduate of Indiana State with a bachelor's degree in criminology."

Miles spent twenty seasons as an assistant football coach at the collegiate level. Before arriving at Indiana State, Miles was the running backs coach at Washington. Miles was an assistant coach in various capacities at New Mexico, Oklahoma, Northern Illinois, and Hawaii, Fresno State, Green Bay Packers, Stanford and Notre Dame prior to becoming the head coach at Indiana State.

Miles was named the Sycamores' 23rd head football coach on December 4, 2007. On October 24, 2009, in his second season, Miles earned his first collegiate head coaching victory, when the Sycamores defeated the Western Illinois Leathernecks by a score of 17–14 in the yearly homecoming game. The game drew a crowd of over 6,000 fans. It was ISU's first victory in 33 games.

Following the Sycamores' first road victory (30–24 over Youngstown State University) in seven seasons (2004), the 2010 season marked the first winning season for Indiana State since 1996. The Sycamores finished the 2010 season with a 6–5 record, tied for third in the Missouri Valley Football Conference (MVFC) at 4–4.
