Tayven Jackson didn't need much time to feel comfortable at UCF.

From the moment he stepped on campus in January as a midyear transfer, the junior quarterback found a sense of familiarity—not just in the offense, but in the people around him. Head coach Scott Frost, who had recruited him out of high school, and quarterbacks coach McKenzie Milton, a name synonymous with UCF greatness, were now his mentors. The opportunity to compete for a starting job in an offense he already admired was too good to pass up.

"I got Coach Frost, the head coach, and KZ as a quarterback coach," Jackson said. "That's all you need to be an elite quarterback in college football. Right then I was like, this might be home."

One of our UCF Alumni needs help.

“Crew Needed - I need a crew to sail from the Abacos back to Florida. Insurance wont let me do it alone.

I plan to transit Marsh Harbor Abacos to Palm Beach,FL during the week of May 18-23. I'm looking for 1-3 crew for this leg. No experience required, just a sense for adventure.

We will anchor in beautiful places every night. Fly into Marsh Harbor (MHH) on May 17 and fly out of Palm Beach internationall Airport (PBI)/Brightline station on May 24. Your only cost is airfare/train and a taxi.

I will pick you up at the dinghy dock in Marsh Harbor and drop you at the airport in Palm Beach. There are 2 cabins available.

Let me know if you are interested, or know someone that would be good crew.

Thanks,


Capt Mike

It was never a stock vs gold thing. You tools never got that. Of course you are in on the game with the casino in the stocks. But the casino can go broke too. This is why we have gold.

Buckle up bag holders, your dollars are inflating away assuming you can still afford to eat. This is why we have hedges like gold and bitcoin. China is accumulating gold, and they want the world to know de-dollarization is upon us.

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.

Will UCF make our 5th straight NCAA Tournament?


Great news…. Eric Lopez has outstanding information and great conjecture who the Teams will be….

When we first moved down to Florida, I learned that one of the canon events of every elementary school student in the Sunshine State is that fourth grade field trip to St. Augustine. My mother was set to chaperone and I had anticipated it for what seemed like months. About two weeks out she mentioned she had a mandatory training period that was thrust upon her and I was absolutely crushed. My aunt went instead in a pinch and it was fine but I had really looked forward to going with my mom. It was about a year in since we came down from New York and my dad was second guessing if we just should have moved upstate. I went from catholic school in the Bronx to public school in South Orlando and I always remembered feeling transient, like a long vacation visit. When the busses pulled back into my elementary school I saw my mom’s car waiting for us and an ice cream truck parked next to her. She bought treats for my entire class, teachers and chaperones. Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake Bars, the Sonic the Hedgehog icee with the gumball, Choco Tacos, the absolute works. Had to be a pricey tab even in 1995, but she was a educator so she knew the lengths elementary school teachers went to make an impact on children’s lives everyday. That day made me feel like Florida was alright and a memory I cherish every Mother’s Day.

How bout you?

Imagine being a public school teacher in Arkansas and seeing the dumbest kid you taught make 7 figures a year in NIL money completely tax free

Like most was wondering why Sheduer isn't drafted yet.

This is my latest thought History does repeat itself. Every level that Deons sons have played football he has become HC. He is a very charismatic legend in football with History. The HC and coaching staffs don't want to lose their jobs if Sheduer underproduces and Deon talks the owner into letting him become their new HC promising them he will take them to the super bowl. I'm not even sure that Sheduer sees this as the problem.

Finally had it happen to me. Was served from payday lender legal this afternoon a day after returning from vacation. Really soured my mood going back into the work week after 12 days off.

It was for a $2,600 registration loan that has ballooned up to $6,700. No notices were ever detected thru the 3 major bureaus, I didn't get any collections calls/confirmation of a loan request from the soft pull etc. The vehicle was in a car accident 3 weeks prior to the registration loan being taken out last November. The vehicle was actually at a collision center in the process of being totaled out. Maybe it's coincidence but I have my doubts. Sucks regardless and time and likely $$$ I'm gonna have to waste to prove it wasn't me.

Just a reminder to freeze your credit reports when not actively looking to apply.. Especially important when your sending out lots of personal info from a life event so im eating my own words toght now even with credit monitoring in place.

I've tuned out UCF baseball lately. Looks like do or die this weekend:


"The Knights will enter the series with a 25-23 overall record and currently in 13th place in the Big 12 standings with a 6-18 mark with six conference games remaining. The top 12 teams will qualify for the 2025 Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship that will run May 21-24 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas."

Take your best guess on these categories for UCF for whenever this game comes out:

Highest rated offensive player

Highest rated defensive player

This was easier last year with the likes of RJ. If I had to guess, highest rated offensive player will be Tayven. Defensive, I'm guessing Nyjalik.

This time at UCF, Scott Frost won't need to catch lightning in a bottle​

I came back from a business trip and found that this Jeep had parked next to me at TPA. I recognized the name, so I looked up his social to confirm. I didn't take a pic of it, but he was proudly displaying a UCF license plate as well.

Metallica played their first concert at Virginia Tech’s Lane Stadium on Wednesday (May 7th) where the crowd’s rapturous reaction to “Enter Sandman” — which has doubled as the Hokies football team’s intro music for the past half century — triggered the Richter scale.

I was talking to the kid’s dad today at the safety patrol awards. He is apparently a very proud Texas alum. We exchanged information. I texted him this evening.
