Congrats to Scott Frost on 1st win

Story regarding Scott Frost, UCF, UConn, and a forced trophy game that is perhaps dumber than the Iowa/Nebraska trophy:

And then follow-up questioning of the UConn coach as to whether or not this is a dumb trophy:

NOTE: The greatest action in this whole story is Scott Frost ignoring the trophy.

Tough loss for UCF yesterday after being up 21-0 on Tom Herman's Houston Cougars at halftime. 4 turnovers in the second half would ultimately cost them. Still a whale of a job by Frost in the way he's turned that team around.

I wonder if this will be a new trend...going to schools in big states that are not in P5 Conferences where you can still make great money with way less pressure.

 
UCF not looking good right now, but heck of a job by Scott to get this team playing well compared to last year. Scott's teams need to work on defense and turnovers, but still a good first year. It will be fun to see if he can get UCF to a big bowl game in a few years. I think he will stay at UCF until the Nebraska job opens up, so he can have good Florida recruiting, with some West Coast recruiting as well.

 
In regards to how Scott Frost held up recruiting this first full class, compared to other Florida schools and Memphis, Cincinnati, Houston (same conference)

(247 composite national ranking)

6th FSU - 24 commits

10th Florida - 24 commits

13th Miami - 24 commits

54th UCF - 23 commits

59th Memphis - 28 commits

61st - Cincinnati - 23 commits

69th - Houston - 19 commits

72nd FAU - 24 commits

77th USF - 18 commits

87th FIU - 19 commits

He did pretty well his first full class compared to others in conference and non-power 5 Florida schools. It will be harder this year as FAU, USF, FIU all went through coaching changes
