i dont think you realize how easy it is to lob a pass 30 yards downfield and not have a defender within 10 yards of your receiver
I love NP13 coming in here and thinking his team will lose. He has no idea how bad we are. This is not some year where we go 5-7 with some close losses. We are getting blown out on both sides of the ball. We are about to go winless with losses to FIU UCONN Tulsa and Furman. We are not middle of the pack and unlucky we are inarguably one of if not the worst team in FBS. We might not win 6 games in FCS.
Excited to watch the basketball game tonight for the first time in a while. I think this team will be frustrating but they are pretty talented. On a side note, I watched that UK-Duke game last night and we need to get Calipari out of CBB for the good of the sport. These super stacked teams are just ridiculous. Every single rebound they were throwing it out for a break with 4 6'8 or taller guys running the floor like guards.
Anyone think it weird they put a random quote from the UF AD in the press release? “Danny comes from a great family and has grown up around athletics and athletic administration and like his brother, Mike, is a bright young mind in the business,” said University of Florida Athletics Director Jeremy Foley.
Chris Weinke has interest in UCF job, according to report Chris Weinke could land his first head coaching job just a few hours down the road from where he won a Heisman Trophy and a national championship with the Florida State Seminoles. According to Orlando Sentinel reporter Shannon Green, Weinke has interest in the UCF gig, vacated in October by George O'Leary. A source with direct knowledge of the situation confirmed to 247Sports Josh Newberg that Weinke does have interest in the UCF opening. Multiple sources have also informed Newberg that Mario Cristobal, Gene Chizik and Geoff Collins are also candidates with interest in the UCF head coaching job. On Tuesday, the Knights hired Buffalo athletics director Danny White for the same position which now turns the school's attention to finding a new football coach. Meanwhile, Weinke is currently in his first year as the quarterbacks coach for the St. Louis Rams. After he retired from the NFL in 2007, Weinke became the director of the IMG Madden Football Academy in Bradenton, Florida, where he made headlines for working out Cam Newton during the NFL lockout. “Chris’ experience at IMG over the past several years and as a player in the league make him a perfect fit for us,” Rams head coach Jeff Fisher said upon hiring Weinke. “Not only has he done an outstanding job preparing quarterbacks for the draft, but he’s also gained the trust of veterans who go back down to work with him. He’s going to be great for our group and I think they’ll enjoy working with him.” At 28 years old, Weinke became the oldest person to win the Heisman Trophy in 2000. But at 43, he's still pretty young for a coach and could inject some enthusiasm into a despondent Knights program.
I can't wait till this team is a little older and doesn't play so inexperienced. I hope Donnie stays a few years. I love those tourney teams with seniors that play smart. That plus the talent we have will be fun.
Fuck Donnie and his teams coming out of timeouts. He is so bad at drawing up a play. And also telling them to run the clock down 1 with 22 seconds left leaving one chance. Yes so fucking bad. It would be nice for him to be fired and a real coach see what they can do with this young talent.
Caught part of the press conference on the radio this morning. I can see why they hired the guy. He at least says the right things.
I laughed: http://totalfratmove.com/why-your-university-sucks-university-of-central-florida/ Your nickname: Knights. Not the “Golden” Knights. We get irrationally upset every time you throw in that Golden, ESPN — even though we’re the only major school in Florida whose mascot doesn’t make a lick of sense. The Gators, Hurricanes, Seminoles, and even the Bulls have a historic significance to each college town. Tampa was a big cattle country back in the day. But Knights? It’s like UCF hit the randomize button on a basic nicknames generator and out popped out this medieval garbage. We had the perfect mascot before, too. Is that a space orange? Damn right. Citronaut was not the mascot we deserved, but the mascot we so desperately needed. Instead, we tossed him the wayside like a broken condom used on a back page prostitute, confused King Arthur’s tales with Greek Mythology, went with Knights for sports, Pegasus for our educational symbol, and named all of our streets after children of Zeus. At least stick to a theme, guys.
I honestly wouldn't mind announcing a rebrand mid summer. People would mock it but they would love it deep down.
You know i wouldn't say knights have no tie to Florida. Ponce de Leon wore armor and a helmet with a sword and shit, he was kind of a knight? although it would have been better if we were the Conquistadors or something in that case
So this should be good attendance; Thursday game in the rain for a zero win team. Pretty sure there are more ports-pots in our lot then cars
