    On3 Roll Call

    Come at me? I posted a few times but can't post now. It says I have insufficient privileges. I'm guessing it's just a glitch. No one cares if you post on both boards, do they? Could that be why I had privileges taken away?

    On3 Roll Call

    I've been out of the forums for about five years. I came back to the Rivals board and was hoping to speak with Tim, Cav, Jaw, Tuco, Spartan, HBK, LukefromDuke and the old crew. For some reason I can't post there. So can anyone tell me if this board has a chance to make it? I see familiar...

    Smooth Transition?

    Sweet. An 18 year old kid comes to a school that is winning a lot of games and plays for a coach he loves for a couple of years. The locker room is generally supportive of the coach even if all would like to win championships. Then an AD who cares more about energy buses than winning not only...

    Smooth Transition?

    True...but the issue was who they replaced Bo with. Riley was a .500 coach who was soft. If Frost had followed Pelini (and if he had the experience he has now) there would not have been those issues.

    Raiola agrees..culture flip needed....

    It's interesting that Raiola saw it this past summer in the weight room before the downfall officially started. We have too many high level recruits who do not pass the eyeball test after being on campus for a year or two. It sounds like Dom is free now. Let him come to a few practices and...

    Bill Devaney

    That's not how the world works. He's the head coach and Eichorst was tied to Riley. Riley could have easily said, "Shawn, Billy, I'm picking who coaches for me period." This was after his own nine win season. Do you really think Eichorst and Devaney had ANY pull at that point. Can you...

    Smooth Transition?

    Players aren't stupid. Three years ago they just won nine games for a number of years, saw a coach get fired, and then get stuck with guys who couldn't coach themselves out of a wet paper bag. The practices were undisciplined, accountability was lacking, and especially in that first year, the...

    Bill Devaney

    Allowing Devaney to push who should be hired and fired is on Riley. Devaney was the Special Assistant to the Head Coach. Riley was a veteran and had no business allowing Devaney or Eichorst to push this nonsense on him.

    One concern with Frost

    A lot. The FEI takes this into account. It ignores points scored in garbage time for either team.

    One concern with Frost

    19th in the nation in points per play sucks? 9th in the nation in defensive FEI sucks?

    One concern with Frost

    One other way to look at defense is to figure out points per drive while ignoring garbage time. The best stat for this is FEI. Here is an explanation of it and it shows Central Florida's defense being #9 (although it is not updated with USF game)...

    One concern with Frost

    Y'all aren't looking at the right stats. If you want to compare teams you must look at points per play (or points per possession). It's the only stat that makes sense when comparing slow teams and fast teams. Right now UCF is #2 in points per play nationally. The UCF defense is #19 in points...
