The UCF Knights didn't win the game, the new trophy and I-4 bragging rights against the South Florida Bulls, but they are coming away from the 2016 season with something bigger:
They've found a future.
And just to ensure that future, the Knights ought to re-do a certain part in coach Scott Frost's contract.
UCF can give Frost a two-year extension after 24 months of his hiring, but there's no need to wait.
UCF, beat the rush. Don't allow other schools to poach your rising coach: Lock up Frost as soon as possible for as many seasons as possible.
