Nope. We negotiate once the regular season is over. The championship game is post season. Just like we did with Urban.

Was at the game. It was one of the better games I've ever seen in person. Defense was lacking but God, it was fun to watch offense for change. Flowers was unbelievable. He was throwing the ball on a dime into tight coverages and small windows ...and a few very large ones. For a crowd of 45K the fans were loud and into it from the jump.
I thought Frost called some questionable plays and there were several blown coverages but he also made some gutsy calls. I'd love to think that he would come to Gainesville but I really think he sticks at UCF for a couple more years. Too bad.

What's the glue that keeps him there?

I know this won't be popular but I came away feeling like I had been watching sandlot football. I am not trying to minimize what Frost has done at UCF but I just didn't come away from it feeling "wow, that's my guy!"

I felt like it was two good high school teams that didn't care about defense. I like the energy, but I'm not convinced this works in the SEC.

Much of the same things were said when Spurrier came to the SEC. Same with Meyer.
He is working with a lot of underclassmen as starters on both offense and defense. On defense they're undersized and blew some coverages. Other times the DBs were in tight coverage but Flowers put the ball exactly where he needed to. They also had awful pressure up front and gave Flowers all day to throw. I think the defense can get better with bigger and faster SEC caliber players. But I have no problem with this offense working well in the SEC. The "Saban" style offenses we've tried the last 7 years sure as sh!t didn't work.
BTW, either of those teams last night would beat at least half of the teams in the SEC right now.

He's going to get too much interest and offers to stay there.
I'm pretty sure he leaves this year, but no way he's at UCF a couple more.

I remember thinking the same about Utah when we were chasing Meyer. It's all about getting playmakers open in space and playing solid defense.
Norvell is the prettier coach if you ask me, though his defense at Memphis is awful, which is a concern.

UCF’s offense works because Frost identified and recruited an overlooked, undersized QB who is an incredible athlete and perfect for him, plus a 3* RB who is smaller than Rainey but as fast and elusive, plus a few other pieces.
Their special teams was A+ last night in coverage and in the return game.
The DL shut down one of the top rushing offenses in the country but gave up repeated huge plays on the passing game, including a ridiculous home run ball that allowed USF to tie it late. They have one really good DB (Hughes, who also had the game winning kick return.)
All that in 2 years. O’Leary’s recruiting was awful in his last 2 years, so it really was almost from scratch.
He’s my guy and honestly I’d be happy with Charlie, too. Taggart left him a solid program but he did a great job with them and at Louisville.
