UCF IT Exodus Thread

I know there are a lot of technologist grads here, so this might be interesting to both them and others.

There’s been a mass exodus of IT personnel from UCF after the new CIO was hired. City of Orlando is having an issue there too (for another thread if anyone is interested). From what I’m hearing, the new CIO doesn’t spend on any non-tech training, advancement isn’t being handled uniformly, and HR is a nightmare. Many people have left, including some senior positions. It’s bad enough that the discussion is popping up on the UCF subreddit.

Is anyone hearing similar issues? Is this all just a few annoyed employees?

Posted this in bowl thread but wanted to make sure everyone saw where to buy these. They were sold out most of the fall shortly after the announcement but are available again in time for the bowl game and the holidays for that matter. Not an affiliate link, feel free to share any other places to buy or better prices in the thread.

Parting Words on Milton's Career...

There was a nice article written in the OS on Milton a few days ago entitled "Insights on Milton's Career". I've been a UCF fan for many years and there are a handful of players that really stood out as a special treat to watch as a major fan of football. I'm curious what your take-away of the Milton age was as a UCF fan if you would like to share.

At the QB position we have a pretty high standard set by Daunte Culpepper for QBs. Nonetheless, to me Milton was in the mold of a Doug Flutie type and set another high standard. We know that Doug Flutie had a better arm but like Flutie, Milton had a way of using everything in his small package to get what needed to be done accomplished on the playing field. He was great fun to watch like Daunte (and Kevin Smith at RB). These 3 offensive players could consistently carry the team on their back.

KZ's first year was such a mixture of his potential being displayed and his need for a better OL and a better understanding of college ball. I love the stories of a big heart overcoming the odds and Milton was a major WINNER in that category. He was able to pull off miracles for UCF but unfortunately couldn't muster up the strength required to lead a team to big victories after his knee injury...BUT what an inspiration and maybe one day he can lead UCF again to victories as its Head Coach? :)

For the upcoming made by UCF night

kind of a lame collection. Why not get bowser to sign his super Mario tee or something? The daunte signed helmet is a new logo we didn’t even have when he was playing - why not just use a retro logo?

bummer I was hoping for more unique stuff. Gimme a signed Gus visor or something.

edit I guess I’ll just ask - maybe these are just ‘off the shelf’ items and more will be added ?
