chamrocck Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 https://www.si.com/college/oklahoma/football/former-ucf-qb-mckenzie-milton-dumps-on-oklahoma-nebraska-and-the-whole-midwest Somewhat surprised and disappointed to see this. I always liked the kid and pulled for him. But this comes off as a bad look. Come to the baby bouncy house over college football historic programs. Nah, I don’t think so. If dude could pull off what he did at UCF at NU, OU, or FSU his future would look a lot different. 1 Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Meh. So a guy who has lived and played in south Florida doesn’t have good things to say about Lincoln or Norman (places he has not lived, maybe never has visited). Comes off a bit whiny but it’s not really much of a story. I’ve been to Orlando a few times. Nice place to visit but I’d live in Lincoln before there. 2 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Report: Kid from Hawaii thinks Orlando is most amazing place ever. I mean in the end I get his point but is there a city/metro campus that lures in big time football recuits? Quote Link to comment

Lived in Miami and have been to Orlando several times. I'd take Omaha or Lincoln over either one. Quote Link to comment

Don't disagree. But, it's understandable that someone that's never been to Lincoln or Omaha would have a very different opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment

TheSker Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 That article was more about Bianchi taking another dig at Frost with the coerced Lincoln comment. 1 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I mean at this point, Milton is just another guy who played college football back in the day. (Does anyone seriously think he's got a shot at the NFL?) I don't see much reason to give a s#!t what he thinks... 3 Quote Link to comment
Lorewarn Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Nothing to see here. Someone from tropical/coastal places doesn't think the midwest is as good - opinion shared by a very large swath of people. Don't even waste the click. Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 The kid does want to get into coaching if the NFL doesn't work out. So maybe not the smartest thing to say out loud considering a good starting point would be to reach out to Frost to give him a job on his staff to kick start his career. 2 Quote Link to comment
gossamorharpy Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Yawn. a fringe D1 qb who's a has been at this point making immature comments without first hand experience to make said comments. Hope he enjoys the attention, as soon enough I doubt anyone will ever hear of his name again Also, why the hell he reppin orlando so hard- isn't he wilting away in Tallahassee these days? Great look to be advocating for an area that he isnt even playing for anymore lol Quote Link to comment
TheSker Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Bianchi is the one who took the discussion that way. Literally. In quote. Bianchi and SI need clicks wherever they can get them evidently. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Born N Bled Red Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 He's not wrong. He actually mentioned Nebraska and Oklahoma's strengths. “When you have great fan experiences, great experiences on campus, and it’s lucrative, that’s the best recruiting pitch possible,” UCF is trying to catch up in that department. He's basically saying if UCF can be competitive in those areas (where we currently lead) it will enhance their advantage. Which is locale. Media is trying to twist it as a dig. Its a complement. Everything else we have outweighs our locale. I mean... to get outraged at this is pretty weak. Bring on the cancel culture. 1 Quote Link to comment

I read his comments as saying UCF has all of those as well and the location of Orlando makes the choice a no brainer Quote Link to comment
