Is this the best coaching staff we have ever had here at UCF?

We love to evaluate the players but the coaches have a bigger impact. I know we don't have any results "on the field" yet, but how do you think this squad stands up to years past?

Scott Frost - Head Coach
Erik Chinander - Defensive Coordinator
Troy Walters - Offensive Coordinator/Wide Receivers
Greg Austin - Offensive Line
Sean Beckton - Tight Ends/Recruiting Coordinator
Mike Dawson - Defensive Line
Jovan Dewitt - Linebackers/Special Teams
Travis Fisher - Defensive Backs
Ryan Held - Running Backs
Mario Verduzco - Quarterbacks Coach
Kevin Smith - Quality Control Administrator
Zach Duval - Director of Strength and Conditioning

Personally, I am most excited about Scott Frost than any other HC that we have ever had! Like many have said, he is a homerun hire!!
Next, Coach Mario Verduzco I am excited about. We have a steal of a hire for a positions coach!! I would put him on our all-time coaching list for that position.
Not to be over-looked, current TE coach Sean Beckton is outstanding as a positions coach!! "In 2015, UCF had up to 20 former Knights in the NFL at one time, and nine of those players were coached by Beckton." Pretty incredible the players that played under his position "2009-11 - UCF - Defensive Backs; 2012-15 - UCF - Wide Receivers".
Jovan Dewitt could be a special coach for us. I liked his bio. Also Ryan Held has some crazy experience (15 years as a head coach!!).

Since I mentioned an all-time coaching list (they had to coach at that position while at UCF. Ex: can't put GOL at DC), here is my quick list.
Scott Frost - Head Coach
John Skladany - Defensive Coordinator (Huxtable?)
Charlie Taaffe - Offensive Coordinator
David Kelly Wide Receivers
Brent Key - Offensive Line
Sean Beckton - Tight Ends/Recruiting Coordinator
Jim Panagos - Defensive Line
Geoff Collins - Linebackers/Special Teams
Kirk Callahan - Defensive Backs
Tim Salem - Running Backs
Mario Verduzco - Quarterbacks Coach

Please help me out as I only went back to 2004
