ok so you don't like Key. But all this was on Key I guess. Sometimes there is more to the story..
Before the UCF football team played a single down in September, the Knights had already moved two quarterbacks to the receivers position, saw at least two players quit the team and lost their most experienced defensive tackle and one of their most experienced receivers due to injuries.
It was just the beginning, with the team sending its best cornerback, Chris Williams, home to Georgia to recover from a gunshot wound.
Head coach George O'Leary added interim athletics director duties to his plate, fueling more speculation about his future plans.
There were so many changes unfolding almost weekly for the Knights that by the time USF ended UCF's season with a 44-3 loss Thanksgiving night, the team's media guide printed in July was almost wholly inaccurate.
Senior defensive lineman Thomas Niles said he expected some challenges this season after UCF saw 21 seniors from the 2014 team leave. Many of the players were long-time starters, helping win two conference championships and two bowl games.
O'Leary said the team's earlier NCAA sanctions created some recruiting limitations that manifested this season after the 2014 class — the last group brought in before the scholarship reductions hit — left. Losing Breshad Perriman and Jacoby Glenn early to the NFL also hurt.
