And as far as the jerseys go, I don’t have a problem with the gold jerseys. It’s the white helmets I have a problem with. Our school colors are black and gold. When we wore black jerseys last year, it looked like our colors were black and white. There has no gold at all. When we wore gold, same thing. It looked like our colors were gold and white. What’s with all the white?

If we are going to wear gold jerseys, then how about black helmets? If we’re going to wear black jerseys, then how about gold helmets? You can keep the white pants if white means that much to you.

That is why if O’Leary does his every other year tank job this year, his feet need to be held to the fire. We just paid our new basketball coach, who was not a heck of a lot better at Marshall than Speraw was here, a boat load of money. This guy better win and win HUGE! If that happens, it will really put the pressure on the football program. One thing we cannot afford, is to become a basketball school. Once that happens, you can kiss your football program goodbye.

So Kirk wins some games and has some tough losses, he gets fired. O’Leary puts up the worst offense in college football and nothing happens? Unless Tribble had some epiphany this year about where UCF athletics should be, I see a bit of unfairness.

In other news, how did I miss UCF signing with Nike? Good job Nike and UCF. It’s a natural fit, and maybe, just maybe, the gold jerseys will be retired.

I have full faith that O’Leary will blow this opportunity to win C-USA in a wide open year. If anything the change should’ve already been made.

Oh well, we just gotta make do. Be curious to see how Holtz does at USF. They’re already obnoxious as hell here in Tampa over his hiring, if they win the Big East they’ll be insufferable.

Neither of those are open. Maybe La Tech and CMU?

Can we get the rumor mill going? Maybe the best way to get rid of O’Leary is for people to start mentioning his name for other coaching jobs around the country….O’Leary is the top candidate for the Buffalo Bills and Duke coaching jobs?

I’m not as optimistic as you Mr. Admin… I’m afraid that George will be with us for the duration, but I’m still hopeful!

How strange that in the Sunshine State, Bowden is gone, Meyer is gone, but O’Leary remains.

Merry Christmas to all and here is to a better 2010!

Ok, I’ll give you that. Just illustrates that the coaching was at fault for losing that game. We could still get a Big East invite, they’d love to have a new door mat in the conference, that is assuming the Big East is still around as a conference. My bet is, the Big 10 takes a team from the Big East, Big East is in danger of disolving unless they get three teams to replenish the ranks fast.

If that does happen and UCF gets in the Big East, hopefully we’ll have a new coach, and get a chance to get some payback against USF.

That wasn’t Hodges’ fault. That was just a stupid play call. Hodges was clearly the better QB this year. In fact, had O’Leary gone to him right after the Samford game, we’d be getting ready for the Libery Bowl right now.

O’Lary coached UCF right out of an upset win against Rutgers. Not onyl was their no passion in the players, but his decisions were questionable at best. After the second INT, Hodges should’ve been pulled in favor of Calabrese. Several times this year Hodges literally threw the game away and yet O’Leary still kept him in there. The defense played a great game, but got worn out covering for the offense’s mistakes.

UCF will continue to stumble along and be an average team as long as O’Leary is left at the helm. The man can’t recruit, can’t coach, can’t motivate, and is a poor football coach.

Here’s what sent me over the top. We score on a beautiful play to make it 21-17. The defense then makes a great stand and forces a punt. The punt is downed at our 10. I say to my friends I’m watching with that “we need to kill the clock and go in down 4″. No sooner do the words come out of my mouth, we drop back to pass and throw an interception and the guy waltzes into the end zone. It kills whatever momentum we had going into the locker room, it makes a manageable 4 point deficit an 11 point deficit. And they get the ball to start the second half with the momentum. They drive down for a score and now we’re down 18. Ballgame. Stupid!

Stupid plays, no emotion. We got schooled by a team that on paper we were statistically vastly superior too. Rutgers fans told me before the game that they felt they had “no chance to win”. Well, they had never experience George O’Leary football!

George = big name, big contract, far too few results for our investment.

I was actually considering manufacturing George O’Leary urinal cakes… any potential investors?

That game was painful to watch. Where was the emotion and passion on our sideline? I know George is a bundle of energy and a dynamic, charismatic person (ya right) but I saw nothing resembling energy. Maybe it was because our seats were almost in Clearwater, but I could see the white jerseys and they didn’t seem to be into the game at all. It showed. Wow, George can fire these guys up huh? I emailed GKC asking if we can donate to his buy-out. I’m not holding my breath. Wake me up when his 10 year deal is done.

Yup. I predicted this loss and a long bowl night in my post on Nov 26th. Despite the fact that the team forgot to practice the week before the game, I had a great time because of all the excited fans that came over for the game. It’s a shame that so many are devoted to seeing a great football program. As long as Coach O’Leary remains at the helm, we will be stuck in the mid-major pits. Don’t look for a Big East invite. O’Leary couldn’t consistantly coach in the Sun Belt conference…

Why are we so bad? O’leary can’t motivate anyone and has a offense that has the excitement of a thanksgiving with my grandparents. Here is the deal….exciting offense and good defense wins games. We are in Florida. Home of all the talent in the football world. If we get rid of O’leary we will be taking the first step in being a national power like we should be. Last time I checked we have the best facilities, a brand new stadium, and a fan base that wants to be the best. I rest my case….please get rid of this guy.
