I look forward to an extended tenure of creating a football program that matches the vision of university leadership, including President Hitt and Danny White. I thank them for their confidence and bold vision. My staff and I will endeavor to continue making Knight fans proud. Charge On!"Frost led an incredible turnaround in his first season at the helm of the Knights' program.

"In my view, the turnaround he led has been nothing short of phenomenal. To that end, we remain incredibly excited about the direction of our football program under Coach Frost's leadership. Successful programs are built around consistency and continuity. As such, I am absolutely thrilled that Scott sees the vast potential of UCF and is committed to our bright future. 'Orlando's Hometown Team' is growing quickly and it's going to be an awesome ride!"The Knights open the 2017 season on Sept. 2, when they host FIU at Spectrum Stadium.2017 UCF Football Season Tickets are now available.
