is it time to fire tik tok Terry

[lawknight]

Athletic department seems to be in shambles..

While i'm happy with the frost rehire.It seemed to be a last minute, ditch effort. Every other major sport seems.in shambles. Is Terry in over his head ?

Tik Tok is a bean counter. He’s not very good at what he does but who is going to fire him? UCF leadership at the top is weak.

Mohajir made a crucial mistake at a critical time. Mohajir decided to invest in seats over inverting in a viable football head coach and the resources needed to hire a good staff.

Wins and TV viewership will be more important than ever in the next few years. A program can’t wait 3-4 years in hopes that a rebuild is successful.

Two losing seasons in a row for UCF football…fans and big money boosters are not going to keep the same level of support if the losing continues.

Frost already has a damaged reputation and will have issues attracting talent (players and coaches). Giving Frost almost nothing to hire a viable staff or to give players competitive NIL is a MISTAKE. Not to say that Frost should have been the hire to begin with…he clearly should NOT have been hired a head coach at this point in time.

Genuinely curious who would put pressure on him though. I don't think Cartwright will.

Here goes the good points: I think he did well with getting Orlando to help with the expense of the new tower. I also think the new baseball coach was a good move. I think bringing Frost back is going to be good as well. It was also great how he got rid of Gus without paying a huge buyout. Now for the areas that need improvement: The softball stadium needs shade and it needs to have more seats. Unfortunately, USF has a nicer softball stadium than we do, and we are in the big 12. Look at the other big 12 softball stadiums on TV. The basketball programs have become disasters. I could write a whole essay on that. By choosing not to do anything, he is actually making a choice. Our basketball teams are now getting lots of publicity about the players who are leaving. I really believe that things can be turned around with our sports programs. I hope that Terry can do this with the new Big 12 money coming in when we get a full share payout. UCF has so much to offer. I just don't want us to end up like USF, UCONN, Oregon State, Washington State or Temple. All of those teams eventually lost their power status/autonomy.

I’m fine with the Frost hire bc of who the other rumored names were

But everything else about the Athletic Department is a disaster right now..it feels like UCF is no longer a school that tries to be competitive.

It’s not because of the Big 12 step up either. With our ‘17 and ‘18 teams we would have probably been well over .500 in the B12. QB play is biggest factor. I could see struggling with Freshman QBs for a year and then getting better but we kept getting upperclassmen and they struggled to be consistent or even good.

Basketball is in shambles. Could be worse next year. The whole team went to the portal. UCF will be the training ground every year for the "big money" power 4 teams to fill their roster. Unless we dedicate money to the basketball program, every year we'll be in last place. You'll never see a team like Tacko, BJ, Dawkins, Brown, etc, ever again with NIL. Many of these athletes will make more in college NIL than elsewhere. It will be interesting to see who comes back from the portal to play next year.

Totally BNGAD, All gus had to do last year, was take out the god-awful QB he chose and it would have been a few more wins. If we go .500 this year it will be an improvement.

Need new basketball coach

 

[Bring Back Wackadoos]

In response to the title of the thread.

Yes.

It was....considering the time it took, and that Frost apparently had no idea who he was going to hire as assistants (again because of how long it took) we can assume we were were turned down by multiple parties

 

[muckdawg24]

The problem is Cartwright didn't play ball like Hitt did. Big perspective difference imo

that is the worry…remaining a consistent dumpster fire so long we end up back in the same neighborhood as USF.

Houston got added to boost basketball, UCF Football. They have lived up to expectations, UCF hasn’t

Terry is a clown and should go back to Ark State, where he belongs.
