I will update this thread with solid UCF information and positive, informed takes on the football program (as applicable).

Absolutely, no Miami, Nebraska or FSU mentions in this thread. Thanks!

"The good news? This isn’t the worst UCF roster Scott Frost has inherited. When he first took the job, the team went 0–12 the year before."

Jacurri Brown doesn't lack confidence. The 6-foot-4, 220-pound quarterback believes he can be one of the best in college football—and now he's working to make that vision a reality.

"I know I'm the best in the nation. That's how I feel," Brown said.

"There is much excitement surrounding UCF as the upcoming season approaches..."
 
I like the TE transfer from Maryland. That’s a solid pickup for UCF. I don’t think he’s as good as Pittman, but good production with 29 catches for nearly 400 yards in 2024.

Jacurri Brown is the guy UCF should start and play the entire year. Brown is tall, strong and very fast. He also has a big time arm.

JB has accuracy issues and that has been his problem since day one. However, this is a throw away year and JB has the highest ceiling of anyone in the UCF QB room. T Jackson has no upside…he’s not a runner and he has a weak arm. It makes sense to go with JB.

what is worse than trolling or delusion is apathy..that is where UCF is right now. Our Athletic Director is to blame more than anybody.
Whether it's the AD's fault or not, I don't know. But I do know that UCF needs some serious NIL money. I get the impression (again, I don't really know) that UCF's NIL collective, The Kingdom, isn't doing much. With a new head coach, THIS is the year that the collective should have given Frost and his Coaches enough $$$$ to make one or two splash signings (like a name QB and a veteran WR.) But those positions, expecially quarterback demand the most NIL bucks.

On the bright side, there were a lot of positive comments about the Knight's S&G and lockerroom culture this Spring. On the not-so-bright side, the program lost a lot of returning players to NIL deals elsewhere that UCF apparently couldn't match. If the program is going to turnaround anytime soon, the AD and the The Kingdom people are going to have to find a few big Sugar Daddies for next year. Without a few big-dollar NIL recruits to generate some excitement, both on and off the field, the future looks pretty tough.
 
Y'all don't have to worry about NIL.

Scott Frost and his army of analysts are going to take all these diamonds in the rough and chicken eaters and "coachwhip" them into National Champs!

Kingdom NIL no longer exists…it was disbanded by Mohajir. They just have an athletic fund now for revenue share. Thing is that the money in the athletics funds can be used for anything…not just for NIL. It’s up to Mohajir’s discretion how those funds are spent.

I am far from a fan of the Scott Forst hire but the man has been given little resources to acquire talent…this is not debatable. Frost is in a very tough situation…it would be really tough to blame him for the 2025 W/L record.

Of all the UCF coaching hires…Clark, the former App State HC, is the best. I am not sure why he got fired but he’s a very good coach that had his team prepared. I am surprised he took a job as a OL coach.

Wow. Wow. Wow. :oops:

Given today's CFB landscape, disbanding your NIL collective -- at SUCH a crtical time when your football program desperately needs to become a force again now that its in the Big XII -- borders on suicidal. There are many reasons why CFB's elites, you know, the ones getting hyped for all their bigtime portal signings, all have outside collectives pulling in the money while ALSO running their own athletic fund-raising efforts.


No matter how you look that call, it makes zero sense. If you wanted to convince me that Mohajir was an idiot, you should have started with THIS decision.

I agree Clark is a great hire. I would include Sean Beckton and Mike Dawson. I can't really speak (yay or nay) to the others. I was a big Mac fan as a player. We'll have to wait and see how he does as a QB coach.
 

UCF 6.5: Under
Scott Frost worked some wonders in Orlando in his first stint. He can find success there again, but given the roster overhaul here, I was surprised this number was as high as it was. UCF has to replace four of its five starting O-linemen. QBs Tayven Jackson and Jacurri Brown are playmakers, but expecting much consistency behind a rebuilt O-line seems like a big ask, especially considering UCF doesn’t have a receiver on the roster who caught a pass last year.

Why do you care? Why do you spend SO MUCH time talking about UCF, our coaches, our players, our NIL, etc? Do the Nebraska Cornmen not entertain you enough?

I might not speak for all, but I definitely know I speak for some...WE DO NOT GIVE A F**K about your over saturated opinions about UCF and what we have going on.

Like I already mentioned, you're as bad as Lobo/AL1. That's why YOU are the main one going back and forth with that idiot on OUR board. You 2 are the 2 main posters here and you're not even 1 of our own.

Then ignore me so the Rivals screen name I created back in 2003 doesn't constantly give you heartburn.

No, you STFU and GTFOH! Aggravating ass. You and your fellow buddy. You aren't even Knights but always trying to criticize and tell us what we should and shouldn't do. Stfu and worry about Nebraska.

I talk UCF football. You insult and belittle other posters. Which style do you think turns off other posters? If my old screen name 'aggravates' you so much, the solution is simple: Put me on ignore.
You aren't even Knights
Most CFB fans are not graduates of the schools they root for. FWIW, I'm been on this board since 2016.
but always trying to criticize and tell us what we should and shouldn't do.
The only thing I've criticized (more like lamented) is the school's lack of NIL money. Seems to me that has been a universal concern of this fan forum.

I am definitely turned off by Willie's constant belittling of other posters. It keeps me up at night. That's why I post so late. His constant bitchhing lhas almost gotten me to the point where I want to join the Dungeon.

The Lazy River would fix everything. Fans and recruits would have something fun to do when they came to Orlando besides watching a sh*tty team. coached team by a Group of 5 nutjob and his army of analysts.
 
Why don't you go to your respective online forums of the teams you pull for?
I'm on willie's side. Get out of here. You guys offer nothing of value and only here to belittle.
We UCF fans do not give a fug about any of your dribble. It's boring, repetitious trolling, and a waste of time.

Thus, delete your accounts.

UCF had six hits.

"Though the Knights were unable to find the scoreboard against Texas sophomore right-hander Teagan Kavan, the squad did break through with hits by Aubrey Evans, Sierra Humphreys, Ashleigh Griffin, Beth Damon, Coco Jaimes and Madison Simon."

I don't care who did and didn't graduate from UCF. Fans are fans. However, you're a fan of another team who jumped on the UCF bandwagon. Who feeds the troll all of the time. Diluting the board. You don't even realize when you're being trolled. Like some others here by that idiot.

LOL. Well imagine THAT. A non-UCF grad insulting...another non UCF grad.

Yeah, I "jumped on the UCF bandwagon" in 2016 and have been here ever since--through the good and (I might add) Malzahn's recent 'suck' era.

Diluting the board??!? LMAO. The purpose of a fan board is to talk UCF football. It's not my fault a third of the active posters are trolls from Miami and Auburn. Apparently most Knight fans don't bother with football until August rolls around.

Just STFU already man. Everyone here knows I didn't graduate from UCF because I let it be known. However, I did get accepted into UCF after graduating high school in 2000 and I've been a fan since I was 14 in 1996. Even more of a Knight than some grads!

So you get your corn shuckin ass outta here. You obviously don't know that idiot is trolling you since you still refer to him as two separate people. Dumb ass

The purpose of "a" fan board is to talk "UCF" football?? No idiot. The purpose of a "UCF" fan board is for mainly "UCF" fans to post on it. Not f'n trolling ass Nebraska and Miami fans posting every f'n day. Even more than Knights. Going back and forth with each other.

You idiots make me miss usf, ECU, Cincinnati, and Marshall fans. At least they were real rivals who had a reason to be here posting often. You and that Miami idiot are just master trolls. Posting here because your prehistoric ass programs have prehistoric trophies. F'n losers.
 
Shuck has been here a long time. I don't always/usually agree with him, but I wouldn't consider him a troll, like LOBO and a couple others. Just block his content if he bothers you. I have done that with the Auburn dude, he no longer bugs me at all.

Reading Willie, it's a real shocker why more UCF fans aren't around here over the summer.

News Flash: In this social media age, it's physically possible for fans of many sports teams to follow all of them on the interwebs.

Shut up and exit to the left troll. The main Husker is already a Knight. Beat it.

Man f**k a Shuck. I didn't mind him either until he wouldn't stop going back and forth with the troll. Who pops up in almost every topic. He's so stupid that he has a thread strictly for trolling and made another for "nice" UCF post. F'n loser ass. Nobody responded to that bs until Shuck did.

Now I see why it pissed some off when I kept going back and forth with him. Lobo is the Auburn dude. Can't believe all here haven't figured that out yet. It takes a special kind of idiot/ troll to do what he does here and Shuck constantly feeds him.

So what? I'm not a forum moderator. If you want the trolling here to stop (a tad hypocritical because you act like one yourself at times), then complain to Brandon. The notion that posters can somehow 'self-police' the activity that goes on here is both naive' and ridiculous.
