He's the hottest head coach in the country. UCF has made an amazing turnaround from 0-12 in 2015. It's hard to believe that we beat these guys in Orlando 40-13 that year. Last year UCF finished 6-6 and beat UCONN at the Rent 24-16. Now undefeated at 9-0 and ranked 14th UCF's impressive turnaround built on solid defense should serve as a model and hope for us. UCONN'S D slipped even farther after this article was written now ranked 128th in total defense giving up a total of 554 YPG. Only ECU is worse at 565YPG. This year UCF's is ranked 38th giving up 365 YPG. Although UCF excels in all three phases it's their defense that their foundation is built upon.
"Scott Frost’s UCF turnaround has taken off quickly. When Frost came to Orlando from Oregon, he brought Ducks outside linebackers coach Erik Chinander to be the Knights’ coordinator. UCF transformed in one season from one of the worst defenses in college football to a solid one. Then Frost’s staff landed the best Group of 5 recruiting class on Signing Day, blowing away the rest of the AAC"
