I am going to agree whole heartedly. Central Florida has done some spectacular things to go from an 0-11 season just 4 years ago in 2004 to what could be a 9-3 year with a solid schedule this year as far as non conference games go. In fact if you look all around CUSA you will see the majority of the teams are investing huge amounts of money in their athletics programs to bring them on the map and within the realms of competition with the rest of the "big named" schools. Go Knights!

Can you blame the kid? Look what O'Leary did with Kevin Smith. Smith was looked at as a LB as well but O'Leary promised him a shot at RB and look how that turned out. Smith will probably be the best RB FL has seen since Emmith Smith. Based on outsiders looking in, UCF would be considered a mediocre program...but...have you SEEN what UCF has done to it's athletic programs?? Athletic Village, New Stadium, New Basketball Arena, new baseball/softball stadiums, new everything. The fans have a new and improved tailgating atmosphere that can rival some of the top schools in the country. It's in a huge TV market. Need I go on...
This school was quoted by O'Leary as being a "sleeping giant" when he took the position... That giant is starting to wake up!!! GO KNIGHTS!!!


I am not disagreeing with you, I understand that UCF has dumped millions into their football program. UCF, still and probably never will be a BC or a Syracuse. if you look at success at turning players into NFLers I would rather go with the proven winners with a track record. when you buy a TV wouldn't you rather have the Sony model over some no name brand. Don't put much stack into what I am saying cause I am a little biased!

So I guess Image is everything, maybe the powers that be might want to look alittle deeper into the new stadium idea. Hopefully they will get it right and build it downtown. where there can be parking areas so people can tailgate. I am still a firm believer in the open air stadium, I know that this week would be alittle cold, but come on we live in Syracuse we should be used to miserable weather.
