Not any more than Western Michigan, Northern Illinois, Marshall and any number of other schools who found short term success. Jumping on the latest big thing isn't a recipe for long term success.

Thats just it..... UCF bottomed out, but had a quick turnaround. In fact, they have been very successful over a long period of time with multiple conference championships, multiple 10 plus win seasons, and a BCS win over the Big 12 champ. Very inaccurate to label them as having "short term success.".............. but yes, poor wording of the question indeed, and I get your point on a technicality.

But it's not a technicality. If it were, Boise State would have been invited somewhere before this. The point is it isn't about wins, whether that's over a few years or "multiple" years. The equation is a lot more complex than that.
