Retire, Gus
- Thread starter Happy Hands
- Start date
You've got to be f'n kidding me man. You're telling me some of our players were posting a pic of their OPPONENT, on their field, striking a Heisman pose, calling him the best in the world, right after losing to him???
Yes. and former players are noticing . these current guys have zero pride in UCF
Gotcha. Just seems like a big if with no passing game and a confused defense.
It’s hard to have pride in your school with the NIL convincing players to jump ship every year. College football sucks right now.
UF is so bad that a W is possible but Iowa State, Arizona, Utah , BYU are likely Ls. with the amount of 4 year guys that is not a good result but TMO loves mediocrity
Yikes, Poolside. I've heard of fans looking ahead and counting wins---but prematurely counting losses for a 3-1 team? Hang in there, bud. There are a lot of games still to play.
Only casuals blame the QB when a team loses. It wasn’t his best game, taking care of the ball was an issue. But it’s not like we had trouble getting yards, outgained Colorado.
But he could have been perfect yesterday, still wouldn’t have mattered. The defense has been torched by P4 opponents for two straight games. Ted Roof is a boomer that has failed everywhere he’s been. Gus somehow downgraded even more than what we had last year on the defensive side of the ball.
But but but the QB…
U r right to a point but this QB is a fullback at best. Problem is our 2 deep qb room is vacant No arms at all
Gus chose KJ:
1) because he missed out on the 2 other portal QB’s and needed someone
2) because of his size and running power
3) because he doesn’t need a good passer to run his High School offensive scheme
4) because he was less expensive
5) because he knows any Great Passing QB who wants to play in the NFL would never want to be part of his offensive scheme because they’ll never have a highlight reel

QB is the most position in Sports. And Gus doesn’t know how to scout or develop one. He also wastes WR and TE talent , I wouldn’t be surprised if Pittman hits the portal.
I keep seeing good recruiter but if that were true we would have a better team. Maybe I am simplifying it too much 🤔
If you need a developed QB nowadays, the word is you're paying seven-figures for him.
Serious question: Does Gus have the kind of NIL donor-backing to afford a good one?
It appears he has the money but he recruits to his system There is reason to believe that KJ didn’t come cheap but Gus keeps relying on a system that does not rely on the forward pass. The President and AD appears to have given him everything to succeed but it’s on Gus now There may or not be a decent arm in the qb room ( after the top 2) but if there is he’s invisible to Gus
Frost was much more of an offensive play calling guru!
There were so many other/better choices than Jefferson. Just like his decision to force a wide receiver into a QB position.
there are Group of 5/6 Programs that recruit and develop serviceable QBs before potentially losing them in a bidding war. Gus can’t even do that. His offense is antiquated
Do we know yet if TCU is terrible? I think so lol.
Looks like FPI has TCU as the lowest ranked team vs UCF remaining schedule.
Regardless how good or bad TCU is, UCF lost depth this week. Even you think the players gone were garbage like AL1, this team has to stay 100% healthy not to start having players see crucial minutes that likely would have never seen the field this year.

I know, I was being sarcastic (and responding to a comment from earlier in the thread).
No it’s not. BFF Terry is taking care of him at the expense of the fans and our program. Not hard to understand.
I’m not moving off this point even if some of you don’t get it. If he goes 9-3 everyone who matters is happy.
I think he hired him out of desperation at the time. He got the job in the spring and had to hire somebody to save or to gather a recruiting class. I know he gave him an extension, but the extension is not what you think. I think Gus is on a hot seat
