They certainly looked like it in the first half of the last game. Yes, the new coach thing with our old pal Brent Key is a factor, but the fact is that Tech roster is more talented than maybe we thought. Jeff: I was more or less non-plussed until I saw what Georgia Tech did with Pitt last week. This is merely a sign of the times.Īre you encouraged, discouraged, or non-plussed by UCF’s performance against Georgia Tech? King had as many Offensive Player of the Week Honors as McKEnzie Milton did in 2017. Does anyone remember Dana Holgerson arriving in Houston and losing his starting quarterback? And I can guarantee you that none of the players implicated in the SMU story has a portion of the impact on their team that D’Eria King did when he transfered to Miami. This isn’t even the first time this has happened with a new coach in the American. SMU is still the same team it’s been all season. Maybe the loss of safety Isaiah Nwokobia leaves the Mustangs a tiny bit thinner in the secondary, but other than that, nothing. As for this game against SMU, the impact seems pretty minimal. I’m sure they’ll be a time to talk about that, but it’s not right now for our purposes. It’s natural.īryson: The biggest impact I could see this story having is just another addition to the transfer portal debate among college football fans. Remember, this is a new coaching staff, so you’re going to have attrition. These four players were not starters, but a couple of players were on the back end of the two-deep. It’s the new norm where players who want to leave will stop playing after the fourth game to guarantee they keep a year of eligibility. This seems more like fodder for the TRANSFER PORTAL BAD crowd on Twitter. The headline makes it seem like half the team is quitting, but it’s at most two wideouts (only one of which has seen one start and two DBs, one of which lost his starting job after the first two games.

Multiple SMU players plan to sit out the rest of season with intention to preserve their redshirt year and enter the transfer portal, multiple SMU staff members with knowledge of the situation said.

So, my thoughts are with all of my fellow UCF students that have had their lives dramatically altered by this storm. That said, it has been surreal and heart-wrenching to see the flooding this storm has caused throughout the UCF area, especially to the homes of my fellow UCF students, whether they be in houses in Oviedo or apartment complexes like Arden Villas. The most damage we had was a soaked front door rug due to rainwater getting through the front door and some downed trees in the wooded area behind our backyard.

I managed to get hurricane grade windows installed the day before the storm, which is another story in itself.īryson: My family was very fortunate to have only lost power for two hours on the morning of Day 2 of the storm. The yard was covered in debris and there are downed trees in an easement further behind the house, but no structural damage. We got hit by Cat 1 winds but were protected by some woods behind the house. Over 70% of the county did lose power at one point. Like Irma, we didn’t lose power or water. Looking back at the storm this past week, it's both amazing and terrifying how powerful mother nature can be.
