say GOL retires next December and assume UCF holds on to the Bo QB commit...the new coach would have 3 QBs on the depth chart(holman, harris, and bo) that are 6'3 -6'4 that have the talent to make all the throws. The AAC is such a bad conference that a decent QB alone could get you to 6 wins.
UCF fans forget GOL was the first coach that got all these facilities and the bigger budget. So they are comparing him to no one bc all the previous coaches never got the administration's support and were working with no facilities. Give the keys to someone new to jumpstart UCF's recruiting potential
What "facilities"? We have an aluminum stadium that is a down right embarrassment. The practice field is just a metal warehouse. Give me a break. FAU's stadium although small looks much better. There isn't a facilities advantage in ucf football. Go look at NC state's facilities and compare at mid level acc level.
Wow is this ever a dumb post. Really? You must not have been a UCF fan for very long. I believe the poster was stating the prior coaches had much worse facilities. Besides, UCF has great facilities given its financial resources. An OCS is great no matter what it looks like. All you need is a place to put your butt to watch the game. all the rest is just gravy.
Been to every home game minus only 3-5 games in the last 16 years. Been a booster for years, basketball season ticket holder for 14 years, went to the bcs game, ireland, Tampa bowls, tons of away games.
Is that enough? Being honest about our football facilities.

We have better than average facilities, for our current conference. It's not Texas, Tennessee, or Alabama facilities, but none of our players are complaining about mold and staph infections either.
Facilities aren't driving recruits away.

Not driving anything away, but let's be real. We are not getting a team full of 4 and 5 stars with the aac schedule and our current facilities. O'leary has us playing like at least a mid level p5 with those advantages. I laugh at the posts that think O'leary needs to be fired. We are 15-1 in the aac.

To say our football facilities is an "embarrassment" is just stupid. Our gameday atmosphere is good, loud and spirited. What else matters? Because we don't have seatbacks somehow you are embarrassed? Really? time to get a check on priorities.

GOL future at UCF.
Our facilities are fine for where we are as a program. The reason we aren't getting four stars is because we do not have access to the championship. You saw that last year. This year we are left to scraps because of this and that the pool is limited even further because of our academic requirements. The kids that make the grades will pick a p5 school with championship access and a better academic reputation.

I wonder how long it's gonna take before the AAC makes the decision to go ahead and start paying the players the $5000 that the power five is giving.
