They played a bad Sienna team. I know he had a walk, SB, R and a single. Not sure what else. ESPN didn’t have box score last night.

We can hope, but we really didn't see much from TC in the time he had on the field.
For once you made sense. Congrats
I don’t think they do for any regular season games and it makes it difficult to follow the program
ESPN almost never provides college baseball box scores. But ucfknights.com has them for every game.
You’d think they’d be pushing it since they have the rights. ESPN shows games but isn’t promoting it much. Kind of dumb on their part.
Just read? LOL!!
This Football Scholarship player was ALWAYS going to participate in Spring Practice...Gus has mentioned it MULTIPLE times.
Only reason he came to UCF was because Gus agreed to allow him to also play Baseball as well...WHILE practicing with the football team.
Heck..remember when he enrolled at UCF in Jan 2022...UCF petioned the NCAA so Plumlee could play Baseball last Sprong at UCF but NCAA rejected their request.
That’s probably why he’s playing in Spring football. They don’t really need him for baseball.
No idea. It would be easier for him to play minor league baseball than make a Practice Squad in NFL.
The thing you guys don't get is that he and Malzahan are FRIENDS. Nothing will change come Fall.
That is really sad if that is true and, if it is, we have the wrong head coach.
Frost and Milton relationship was the only reason Milton came back for his sophomore season when the team didn't want him (Milton Youtube) . I don't think this is uncommon. That being said, if the player doesn't pan out the coach is left looking like a failure by the team and fans.
Yup, major risk to the coaches if they end up supporting the wrong person, which is why I doubt Gus would go with JRP if someone else was clearly a better option. “Clearly” obviously means different things to different folks, though.
So what you are pointing out is the guy who had the windup throwing motion, so viciously criticized by many going into the season, ended up beating the teams that DG could not beat. Ok, I agree with that.
But my point is that, as a team, we did not regress at QB after DG left, in terms of winning key games against the leading AAC teams. Don't forget that we also beat Tulane, which beat Kansas State & USC, and we beat SMU, of whom so many were scared that our offense could not keep up with their high powered attack.
I agree with you that we need to continue to improve at the QB position. But with McClain and TC getting more acclimated in our system, along with JRP getting more accustomed, I think that we are closer than many expect to having a quality QB room with respectable depth.

There was an article where it was stated how they'd hang out at each other's home and play pool. Just speculating here, but I think we're stuck with JRP even if he's second best.

As a professor, I found I had to be very careful hanging out with one or two of my students because even if I wasn't playing favorites there was always the danger other students could think I was. This is particularly true if the students you are hanging out with are receiving some kind of treatment, reward or position others don't think they deserve. I would think in sports this could present a real problem with the other players. Very tricky path to walk.
JRP 9-5. In his 5 losses, 1 TD and 8 Turnovers.
Gabriel 8-5 (last two UCF seasons). In His 5 losses, 17 TDs and 2 Turnovers.
But Plumlee beat Cincinnati, well not exactly since he didn't play in the 2nd half where Keene lead the team to a 4th quarter comeback. And that Cincinnati Team was obviously equal to the Cincinnati team that went 22-2 the previous two seasons. I am sure Tulsa brags about how beating UCF in 2019 is equivalent to the 2017/2018 team.
Definitely some apples and oranges comparisons going around - interesting to see the DG stats comparison, though.
I always felt like labeling DG as a choker was unfair - I put the “big” losses more on Heupel’s shoulders than anyone else.
I didn't say Plumlee beat Cincy. I said that we AS A TEAM did not regress at QB after DG 's departure in regard to THE ABILITY TO BEAT THE TOP AAC TEAMS. I agree that DG up a ton more stats. But I prefer to have a QB who can win the games where it matters most. I care more about wins than stats.
If a QB has way better stats but the team wins the same, wouldn’t the defense have most of the blame in that scenario?
So you must be disappointed that Keene left and Plumlee is here. When Plumlee needed to step up in the final 4 games of the season he lost 3 of them.
Can’t argue with facts……when he wasn’t 100% healthy physically, his shortcomings as a passer were easy to spot and defend against.
I'm pretty sure we will see one of them leave the program. I think one will be staying at the minimum for back up purposes. I'd like to think that if we see Timmy or Tommy focusing their time in the weight room, the film room, and at practice it will pay off at the Spring Game. If Plumlee struggles there and against Boise, then we may see them leap frog Plumlee. Again, I don't have anything against Plumlee as he is one hell of a QB but in the words of Ron Swanson, "Never half-ass two things. Whole-ass one thing and be very good at it."
