Two weeks to go

OK it's actualy 15 days until kickoff of the 2016 football season for the UCF Knights.  The plans are being made for the first tailgate of the season which basically comes down to what food am I going to serve to go with my beer.  I am very excited about seeing all of the changes that have come about since the close of that miserable 2015 football season.  As I mentioned in the previous post we have an all new coaching staff who have taken the program in a completely different direction than we had been going.  The culture has surely changed drastically and it is apparent from all of the interviews with all of the coaches and players I have seen going all the way back to spring football.  New uniforms have made it to campus and they look really sharp.  I was kind of against not having gold be more of a prominent feature of the uniforms, I mean gold is one of our primary colors but in the end I don't think gold on a jersey or pants ever loos very good.

Speaking of new, our new video board at BHNS is starting to take shape and not a moment too soon.  I am not sure why they decided to wait so long before constructing it but it appears as though it will be finished soon.

Yeah, this video board is going to be sick!!

I am also look forward with much anticipation to the new audio system that is supposed to be installed for this season.  The old audio system was awful, it was just big and loud which is OK if you are sitting at the opposite end of the stadium as the speakers but not so great if you are sitting in the north end of the stadium.

So here a are a few weeks away from the first game of the year and the excitement is palpable.  I'm so excited I just can't hide it!
