UCF got wildly lucky with a coach and a QB.  UCF had terrible attendance at their new, crappy OCS and player killing IPF, and were winless on the field after all that "investment."  They were in debt up to their eyeballs.  If Frost and MM had not shown up when they did and gotten the bandwaggoners interested in melting on Aluminum bleacher in a "stadium" that was a safety hazard, it would have all fallen apart.

 

There was no real plan.

This is true.  But I do think they get credit for investing in the program and making it a priority.  Something we haven't done since the Jim was fired up until the past few years.  I'd like to have an OCS, but we play in a great stadium.  If CAG wins some games with an exciting offense no less, then we are primed for big things

Someone please show me where anyone said anywhere that an OCS was a requirement by anyone for anything or where a single game was won by an OCS. An OCS is discussed as a mythical thing for three reasons 1) ucf built one and they eventually got in and we did not build one and then we didn’t get back in but it completely ignores that they have been consistently winning and relevant while he have not and back when we got in last time we were consistently winning and relevant. 2) we just don’t have one so people always think that’s the difference maker and 3) because it’s expensive and takes a long time so it allows a forever excuse to be able to be developed that will eventually be someone else’s problem when it solves exactly zero things 

link to where anyone has said it's "the difference maker" .... but it does show a commitment to the program .    Lots of schools have them so they can't all be dumber than the puc

Forgot the stadium. Look at budgets. Compare there’s to ours. We aren’t investing like they are, period regardless of how we spend it.

The stadium came about because they were ticked off at Orlando for renovatijg the Citrus Bowl without their input. It was the absolute cheapest thing they could buy.  I have been in nicer high school stadiums.  And the IPF...wow.  The only real investment was O'Leary.  And that wasn't a huge investment and his returns were uneven to say the least.

Keyboards should come with breathalyzers.  Would have saved me a few times.
