UCF football coach Scott Frost recalled an opposing coach shared a Bobby Bowden quote with him after a game this year that perfectly illustrated the Knights' reboot efforts after going 0-12 during the 2015 season.
"Bobby said the inevitable process is going from losing big to losing small to winning small to winning big," Frost said of Bowden's thoughts when he took over at Florida State in 1976. "We're somewhere on that scale right now and we're moving in the right direction. But we're all trying our hardest to speed up that process."
There are still more gaps than puzzle pieces needed to execute Frost's UCFast vision, as illustrated by UCF's second major second-half collapse this season during a 31-24 loss to Houston last Saturday.
