Scott Frost... I didn't know he was Oregon's O coord.... makes sense. I'm not sure how good of a job UCF is, but the residual talent in florida is better than the primary talent in most states. USF knows this well.

UCF has the largest enrollment of any major D-1 football program, just ahead of Ohio State. Although U. of Minnesota, Maryland and Florida International are not far behind.

Frost was offered $1.2 million a year to be the coach at Syracuse, but he turned it down to go to UCF. Probably not a bad move on his part since UCF has a larger talent pool and plays in an easier conference.

Frost is a great OC and expect him to do well as a HC. He is also a good recruiter. He turned down a HC position last year and not surprised he had a few opportunities again.
