Didn’t realize other leagues also didn’t carry this sport.

Yea i'm not sure why the Big12 doesn't have it. Not sure where the Sun Belt ranks in terms of conferences for soccer.

“ Nine teams will comprise Sun Belt Conference men’s soccer; three of the new Sun Belt members (as of July 1) James Madison, Marshall, and Old Dominion will join Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern, and Georgia State. In addition, Kentucky, South Carolina, and West Virginia will compete as affiliate members for men’s soccer only. The Sun Belt Conference previously sponsored men’s soccer from 1976-1995 and 2014-20. ”

Huge pickup. He could try for a waiver to play immediately but kind of hoping he sits out the year since we're so deep at RB this season. He could be huge for us with 3 years to play in the Big 12.

Donations at this level are needed to advance the program

Post #1751 » by **UCFJayBird** » Tue Jun 28, 2022 7:27 pm

Yea that's a huge donation. All this momentum lately is crazy. Glad to see it's not just turning into recruits but more donations as well.

Post #1752 » by **UCFJayBird** » Tue Jun 28, 2022 7:31 pm

BTW if anyone is ever interested in donating and joining the Shareholder's Society (requires a minimum pledge to donate $25k, which can be spaced out over time, i.e. my donation is spread out over five years), hit me up with questions and i'll answer what i can and put you in contact with my rep (if you decide it's something you want to pursue).

Would have been terrible for the big12 imo. He’s damn near wrecked the magic.

Kent · Post #1757 » by **Kent** » Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:31 pm

If Martins had secured the job, you wonder what would have become of the Magic COO role.

Post #1758 » by **UCF** » Tue Jul 5, 2022 6:26 pm

I’m glad we secured an invite to the big 12 when we did. the realignment happening because of UCLA and USC going to the big 10 could wreck college football.

The rumor mill is in full swing and hysteria, lol. It'll be interesting to see what happens when the dust settles (that could be a while, lol). But yea, thankfully UCF squeaked in just in time. USF on the other hand couldn't have picked a worse time to have a rough stretch in football (not to mention no OCS).

The fake insider accounts are having a field day with this again…
