UCF plays Memphis tonight (Wed 1/11). Important game for both teams. ESPN bracketology has Memphis as first 4 teams in with UCF first 4 teams out. Don't really know what that means but probably means this is an important game!

Also, #1 ranked Houston visits UCF jan 25th (Wednesday). UCF almost beat houston a couple weeks ago.

Keep an eye on UCF B-Ball. I have a hard time thinking UCF will beat Memphis, but that's why they play the games!

March is WAY too far away for it to mean a damn thing.

Losing 5 in a row hurt. I'd say 6 or 7 depending on S. Fl game. Maybe they'll play Tulsa 1st rd.

Yes. UCF floundered. had some injuries. I wasn't expecting UCF to be any good this year. More than likely not making post season play and going into Big12 next year....gonna get butt wiped.

A lot of UCF fans are calling for Johnny Dawkins to be fired. I'm not one of them. I think he is a good coach. But, whatever. People hate to lose.

Hendricks Unanimously Named to All-Rookie Team, Earns Second Team Honor
Taylor Hendricks earns two conference honors after being named the league's Rookie of the Week for a record nine times

FORT WORTH, Texas - After a remarkable rookie campaign, UCF men's basketball's Taylor Hendricks has been unanimously named to the American Athletic Conference's All-Freshman Team and earned a Second Team All-Conference nod as well.

Hendricks set The American record for most Rookie of the Week nods in a season, tallying nine honors. The league's weekly awards were handed out 17 times this season, meaning Hendricks was honored as Rookie of the Week more times than he wasn't. He also set the conference record for most consecutive Rookie of the Week honors, earning four-straight from Nov. 21-Dec. 12. He won the award in four of the first five weeks of the season and finished the year winning three-of-four possible honors. Hendricks was named to the weekly honor roll on Nov. 14, meaning he was recognized by the conference in the first five weeks of the campaign.

On the season, Hendricks averaged 15.6 points and 6.8 rebounds a game. He tallied a conference-leading 51 blocks and added 27 steals in the process. He shot 48.8% from the field and 41.3% from the three-point line.

In conference play, Hendricks did more of the same averaging 15.8 points and 6.6. boards per contest, registering 31 of his 51 blocks in league play. He snatched 19 steals and registered 29 assists while shooting 49% from the floor and 38.6% from beyond the arc.

Hendricks scored 20 or more points in six games this season, hitting his career high twice. He scored 25 points on the road at Tulsa to top his previous best of 23 which he achieved twice, before scoring 25 again on the final day of the regular season against ECU. He tallied five double-doubles along the way, earning his first against Florida State in the second game of the season, earning 15 points and grabbing 12 boards.

Earlier in the season, Hendricks had been honored as the Baha Mar Hoops MVP as well as a spot on the All-Tournament Team. He earned his second career double-double in the tournament's semifinal matchup against Oklahoma State before dropping 19 against Santa Clara to help the team win the title.

Hendricks is the first Knight to be named All-Conference Second Team or better since the 2018-19 season when Aubrey Dawkins was bestowed with the honor, and B.J. Taylor was named to the First Team. A Trio of Knights have made the Third Team over the past two seasons.

Hendricks' nod makes it back-to-back seasons where a Knight has been named to the All-Freshman Team. Current teammate Darius Johnson earned the honor last season. Hendricks and Johnson are two of five total Knights to be named to the league's rookie squad.

UCF beat SMU in first round of AAC tourny today. They played pretty bad and were down double digits most of the game but stormed back at the end to win. Next game, Friday 7pm, Memphis. I doubt we get past Memphis. They deep team and had first round bye.

UCF lost to Memphis in the AAC tourny but it was close! Memphis went on to beat #1 Houston on Sunday for the Conference Championship. Those two teams are in the tourny.

UCF made the NIT and play the Gators in the first round, Wed. 7pm. ESPN2.

Go Knights...Beat Duh Gators!

UCF has now beaten UF in Basketball and Football. Maybe even baseball, I have to check that.

Oregon embarrassed UCF last night. I've been watching a lot of the tourny. Sweet 16 is set.

UCF has certainly beaten UF in baseball, more than once. I am 99.875% positive that the 2 teams play a 3 game series, every season and UCF has had a pretty damn respectable baseball program for many years .... much longer than the football or basketball teams have been competitive with the Big Boys,
