You might not realize it, but what we just witnessed on Tuesday was UCF firing a preemptive strike at Nebraska, Tennessee and other Power Five programs that potentially could make a run at football coach Scott Frost and his coaching staff after the season.
UCF issued a news release on Tuesday afternoon in which Athletics Director Danny White announced that the school will aggressively try to raise more than $1.5 million a year from donors for the school’s “Football Excellence Fund.”
Actually, it should be called the “Keep Scott Frost in Orlando Fund” because much of the new money would presumably be used to pay Frost and his staff of highly respected assistant coaches.
