Well known enough to sign the best class of the AAC, which, by default, is head and shoulders above the G4.

I am inferring that you are implying a reference to UCF's 2 winless seasons in an 11 year span?

That's hard to do. Heck, even Georgia State hasn't accomplished that feat.

So what's our overall record in that time span? Championships? Bowl Wins? Head to head record?

I'm perfectly happy with 2 statistical anomalies.

Well known enough to sign the best class of the AAC, which, by default, is a little better than our brother G5's.

UCF recruiting last year was closer, by rank, to Oregon and Tennessee, than it was to Louisiana Tech.

But you're right, head and shoulders might not be appropriate. I should add chest and torso to this anatomy analogy.

Hey, I got no problem with how we recruit. We must be doing something right. Just look at our last couple of NFL drafts!! You won't see our coach speaking ill of or bemoaning the attention other coaches get in our state.

Recruiting is nice, but what's more important is what you can do with what you get. Give me a program that can win with lower rated recruiting classes over one that recruits well but can't win any day and twice on Sundays.

So are you saying that FSU, Alabama, Clemson, and Ohio State's recruiting has had no correlation with their recent performance?

He is saying that its what you do with the talent that makes if valuable.

I thought that was obvious? I can technically ride cross country on a trike depending on how I do it, but it's obvious it'll be much faster and more comfortable on a Harley...

To completely disregard highly rated talent because "It isn't the only factor" is ludicrous.

Tech and UCF have depended on the "Coaches Eye" for High 2 and Low 3 star talent for decades. Blake Bortles was a 3 star recruit, Vernon Butler was a 2 star recruit. Both saw the first round while I can name three 4 star kids sitting on LSU's bench that we recruited as well. Its not just riding that Harley cross country, its finding that 76 shovel head in the weeds and making it into a monster.

Diamonds in the rough are the exception, not the rule.

Make a thread about UCF, get UCF fans. Not that hard to comprehend.

Here are two statistics and facts that you'll like; Marshall hasn't beat UCF in the last 8 tries, and UCF gave Marshall the worst home loss in the history of your terrible home stadium. It's fun when you use other teams to knock a team yours could never match up against huh?

a.) Sorry, you no longer own the worst home loss in our stadium history anymore. We have that record up twice this year. But somehow our worst team in the post-crash era still somehow won three more than your winless teams.

b.) Those in aluminum erector set stadiums automatically lose the terrible stadium argument by default.

Hey, at least you all got Donnie Jones. Hope he's working out well for you.

Something to be proud of there. Erector set? Clever and original. You've probably never seen our facilities if you think yours is better. Lastly, who cares about basketball but I'll play anyhow. I'd say pretty good seeing as how we fired him and had a good run in the NIT. Enjoy your terrible school with no future.

You know, the G4 comment just makes you look really silly. That P6 stuff is as Mickey Mouse as it gets. Reality is reality. Putting P6 on your helmets doesn't change reality.
