I had made this edit a few years ago, I think Youtube muted the audio because of the song but I just uploaded again.

This is from the 1998 "Golden Year" highlight video.

Hey guys. Looking for a company to come out and fix a small leak I have around a plumbing vent. Not sure if our supporting roofing companies do repair, and don’t need a new roof. Suggestions on a great licensed contractor appreciated. I’m in Longwood and would love to support a UCF business owner

UCF's recruiting class continues to add star power.

Gainesville (Fla.) Buchholz wide receiver Quan Lee is the latest to jump on board, announcing his commitment Tuesday night in a video announcement posted by the Gainesville Sun.

Previously committed to Miami, Lee made multiple visits to UCF in June including an official visit the weekend of June 18.

In the video feature, Lee explains some of his life struggles before revealing his decision.

"In seventh, eighth grade that's when it really clicked for me I can be pretty good at this thing," Lee said. "Growing up, I was bad. In and out of alternative schools. I didn't know where my place was. What's my purpose in being here? I was always in trouble. Suspended. I had to change. I knew what kind of person I was, what kind of player I was. I knew that wasn't me."

He said his attitude completely changed once he got to high school.

"My parents motivated me a lot," Lee said. "I never saw them give up. I've seen them go days without food. When times get hard, money gets low, but I never saw them give up. That motivated me. I gotta go.

"My brother played college football. Ralph Webb. He played at Vanderbilt. That was a big part. Kind of watching him go through that whole process. If he can do it, I can do it too.

"Being from Gainesville, not a lot of guys get highly recruited. They may get small D2 offers, but very few get D1 offers. With me, I always knew I was different. Even though I was committed to Miami and all that, (UCF) was a school that kept at me. They never got ghosted on me. They always showed love. I feel like this is a school where I can blow it up in college football. This is it for me. I'm all in."

In the video, Lee reveals his choice while wielding a sword.

"In life we all face obstacles," Lee said. "We all fail in life at some point. I"ve been doubted my whole life. I've been counted out. I've ignored the hype and just worked. That's all I knew, was work. I knew I was different growing up. I wanted better for myself. I knew I had to stand out. My mama always said when one door closes, another one opens. With that being said, I would like to announce once a Florida boy, always a Florida boy. Charge On."

Lee received a recent offer from Michigan and also had offers from the likes of Pitt, WVU, GT, Nebraska, Penn State, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia Tech among many others.

He becomes UCF's 12th overall commitment in the 2022 class and the ninth from Florida. With the pledge, UCF is now No. 46 in the Rivals.com recruiting rankings.

But something remains distant. Someone who played such a significant role in putting UCF on the map and elevating the UCF brand is rarely found on campus.

Daunte Culpepper helped build the program, but on game days and throughout the season he rarely comes home.

There is no fallout or hidden story that divides him from the program. These days Daunte keeps a low profile. He rarely makes public appearances and has dealt with a number of challenges over the years away from football.

...

Daunte Culpepper is the greatest athlete I have ever seen at UCF in my 27 years. I have watched others come and play the quarterback position and play it well. Daunte was just different. He was special. He was one of those players who come along every 25 years — or at least you hope they do.

He gave us so many highlights and played such a big part as one of the pioneers of the UCF football program. Part of what makes Knight Nation so special is how we treat our own. As a new season filled with so much excitement is about to begin, it’s time to for Daunte Culpepper to come home again to a place he helped build and be part of the celebration.

My wife wants me to go with her for 3 or 4 days to Milwaukee in mid July and trying to decide if I wanna go. She's has a meeting for a couple hours one day and we're trying to decide on where to go and what to do if we stay. We can fly up on a Wednesday and stay through Sunday if we want and mostly just enjoy the weather and eat and drink.

I checked the American Club and the only thing available is running $1,100 a night. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I wonder what his rea$on$ were for these choices... Louisville seems to be putting together a real strong NIL program for football somewhat surprisingly. Could be a bit of a threat. Nice to see that our future Big 12 brothers TCU are involved as well.

As far as UCF is concerned in this, Rueben Owens going to Louisville could have a nice side effect for us. We've been competing with Louisville for Javin Simpkins, a composite 4* RB from Miami, and his connection to Louisville seems pretty strong. Maybe he'd change his mind and prefer UCF if it's possible he could get stuck behind a likely NFL caliber RB in Louisville.

Sons of UCF EXTRA: As part of the Dreamfield/Mission Control Built by UCF Knight event a portion of the proceeds benefited the Otis Anderson, Jr foundation. In this video Denise Anderson, Otis Anderson Jr's mother, shares her thoughts about Knight Nation, and the inspiration behind the Foundation.

Thanks for clicking here.

It’s amazing how hard we had to fight for respect in 2018. Beat a 10 win loaded Auburn team? Lucky to be ranked.

Barely beat a dog shit Auburn team without their QB? Clearly the best G5 team

Thanks to @Chrisiskingx for the heads up.

DB Koby Perry talks about his decision to transfer from Austin Peay to UCF.

Where did you buy yours? Best place around central florida? Lab diamonds? Real? Give me all your info.

We aren't doing anything special anyway, so why not bring back one of our goats?*

Jaw dropping. This is wild.

what do you think? the current one has got OUT in a chokehold. I imagine after being victimized twice now the XII wants to lock everyone down in something iron clad.

the current OUT GOR would be overkill for the new 12 and virtually impossible to get out of.
Probably good to ensure stability but God help anyone who tries to leave early

In town just for the day to see Motley Crue tonight in Orlando. Would like to buy a couple of new UCF polos. Anywhere besides campus to buy them? Ideally between the airport and Citrus Bowl. Thanks!!
