Can't we so a FOIA on UCF?

UCF does not have to respond to FOIA requests because they have an athletic organization operating as a DCO (Direct Support Organization). This excludes them from FOIA laws as they are a private entity.

Of course, they claimed to be a PUBLIC entity when Erick Plancher died and they were sued by the family - State law caps public university liability on lawsuits at $200K. They were all about being a public entity then. Now that athletics is not currently being sued, they're back to being private.

quite interesting but sounds sort of shady to me

It is. UCF has low standards.

Also even pretty recently Plancher family still hadn't received their payment.

Great video!

Love the Lee Roy Selmon Jr. addition as well. Very strong, and upbeat I thought. Nice find.

A very strategic move on USFs part.  The Selmon name is revered in Norman and using it will, hopefully, add cache to our bid.  I can't help but think how much better our chances would have been if Lee Roy was still with us.

I shook his hand on the field before a game once. If there is such thing as an aura, his was the most powerful I've ever been around. Powerful and peaceful at the same time. Just an amazing presence.

He's a courtesy professor, whatever that is. I saw that he was a guest lecturer one time. Pretty nice to have him caring about a local institution. More than a lot of our community does and he didn't get here until he was 50.
