That's good news. It was rumored already but was a little nervous with the rumors of Dawson joining the staff. I do find it interesting we have different coaches for DT and DE. Seem like you'd have one coach for DL.
Coaching staff speculations?

Seriously. Frost is acting like he’s building a G5 staff, not one to compete for the CFP. None of his picks are being pursued by ANYONE else. Most have either been fired or left behind unimpressive results. WTF? Why aren’t we swinging for the fence on every hire? I realize we won’t get all of them but we are becoming the graveyard for shitty performance! Is there any Knights fan that honestly believes this new staff will make us competitive with the top teams in the Big XII (or even be able to recruit at the higher level we need? 2 years of Malzahn-like results and we’ll sink to the absolute bottom of the conference).

Not if Frost actually fixes the offense and recruits a QB. That gets fixed and everything else will follow. There is going to be a prove it phase
BS.Maybe Gus quit because UCF couldn't pay out his contract, much less buy out his contract.
or Terry is just cheap.Maybe Gus quit because UCF couldn't pay out his contract, much less buy out his contract.
Former Oklahoma defensive coordinator hired by Big 12 school

"... Grinch could not move the needle enough on the defensive side of the ball, and OU made just one more trip to the College Football Playoff in the Riley era. When the coach bolted for USC after the 2021 regular season finale, Grinch was one of the first assistants to follow him."
"It ended up being a blessing for the Sooners. They had the best defense fans had seen in years in 2024. Grinch, on the other hand, struggled at Southern Cal. He was fired by Riley midway through the 2023 season."
NOTE: For the record, I like Grinch and think this is a good move for UCF, considering all the variables. Here is a somewhat positive article on Grinch.
Let's Talk About Alex Grinch
During his time as Lincoln Riley's defensive coordinator Alex Grinch inherited terrible defenses and made them either marginally better (Oklahoma) or worse (USC).

It’s not Xs and Os. It’s Jimmys and Joes. Save the money for the players. Saban got out because he was getting outbid by marginal schools. We need to outbid for a QB at least.
With what money exactly? Unless you have bags of cash in your Lamborghini (my Lamborghini is void of cash
) we have less than marginal teams. Look at who we have agreed to visits with, both are backups not top end transfer QBs.
