Have to start somewhere. The record is solidI’m starting to wonder if this is the high point of UCF basketball for the next few years
My #1 team is St. John’s. #2 is UCFAt johnny's level of recruiting this will be the most talented team he will ever have at UCF. We are seeing our ceiling for the program under dawkins - and its a fringe ncaa/NIT team.
Without Zion Duke isn’t a top 10 team either.My #1 team is St. John’s. #2 is UCF
Nothing wrong with a fringe NCAA team/NIT team.
Neither team can expect to be Duke.
I know. That’s my point. North Carolina just blew them outWithout Zion Duke isn’t a top 10 team either.
So Honors, when UCF loses again to UH, Cincy and Temple, do you REALLY think they are tounry-bound, with ZERO Q1 wins?
I'm looking forward to your Black/Gold glasses analysis.
5 point loss to a very good team on the road is probably a win at home by 5
Meaning we are almost as good as Cincinnati with a rich history. I’ll take it
When the NBA sets the draft age back to 18 and implements the rules for an updated G-League that will take high school kids straight in, teams like Duke, UNC, Kansas and Kentucky are going to lose the majority of those high-end McDonald's All-Americans and not have as much of a talent gap as they have now.Without Zion Duke isn’t a top 10 team either.

I guess it depends on your definition of good team. It’s a 30-40 rank tournament team. If that’s “good” or not is a matter of opinion.Lol at accepting moral victories. I’m sorry, but you want to be attractive to the Big 12, who thrives in basketball, you cannot accept moral victories. Especially since this was “the best Ucf team ever” on paper at least. Not being able to beat the big teams smu in 2016, Houston and Cincinnati this year is unacceptable. Not with what everyone was sold. Now we can talk about how bad most cbb media is, but that’s for another thread. Moral victories are for cusa teams, not teams trying to expand.
Dawkins absolutely cost ucf last night. His rotations late were horrific. Why Allen was in over Bertz, who stretched the defense with his 3 point shooting, was confusing. Tacko got pushed around by a 6’10 dude twice down the stretch which is on Dawkins cause how the **** is he still so soft in year 3 of Dawkins ball? Collin Smith was a complete liability in last 5 minutes. He had a wide open shot but passed it with 3 seconds on shot clock that helped change momentum.
This isn’t a good team. It’s a team that beat some scrubs and can’t beat top teams

If we got the same kids no, but there will be a trickle down affect and we could get FAU or Stetson type players. I only see 5-10 kids being good enough a year. Too many kids will flop.When the NBA sets the draft age back to 18 and implements the rules for an updated G-League that will take high school kids straight in, teams like Duke, UNC, Kansas and Kentucky are going to lose the majority of those high-end McDonald's All-Americans and not have as much of a talent gap as they have now.
Cool story. The metric that they actually use for tournament selection has them in the top 40. RPI they are 31. At any rate a top 50 team and currently in the tournament by most projections would classify as good in many people’s eyes.KenPom has them 50th which is the best site to determine how good a team is since KenPom has a team of guys that watch every single college basketball game and measure the efficiency. That’s mediocre.
Name for me the best win UCF has this year. Memphis? They’re horrific on the road. Bama? Bama lost to a bad uf team. Rider? They were 5-7 before their awful conference started. Not having a single good win undercuts any argument for this being a good team.
I'm sorry, you must have been looking for a board that cares about the Big 12 or your opinion.Lol at accepting moral victories.

Cincy is 48-2 at home in the last 3 years. I think we showed last night that we were a tournament team. Some of you are delusional because of the success we had had at football. The AAC is a basketball conference and if we can finish in the top 4, that is saying something. This is the best team we ever had and I believe Johnny Dawkins is the real deal. Basketball isn't about recruiting high school seniors unless you are a blue blood program. It is about picking off transfers who aren't getting playing time at their current school.
Come on man.I’m sorry that you’re too retarded to know how metrics work. Maybe someone should’ve shot your c unt of a mother in her head. Also Ucf just dropped to 53 which is meh. Don’t have kids and if you do hopefully someone murders them
Came to play.Yes, need to rebound (literally and figuratively) and beat SMU soundly today. Noon Tip, CBSSN.
