SHANNON'S 34 LIFT KNIGHTS OVER SEMINOLES IN COME FROM BEHIND THRILLER

UCF Knights 6-1 (0-0) at Florida State Seminoles 4-3 (0-0)
Donald L. Tucker Center
Tallahassee, FL
November 22, 2014

Tallahassee, FL - Just three days after beating the #24 ranked Miami Hurricanes in Coral Gables, the UCF Knights headed down to Tallahassee to duke it out in front of 12,000 rabid Seminoles fans. While the result was the same, the play this game was much different. The Knights tried to get out on a run early in the game to put Florida State out of it, but the entire first half turned into an offensive shootout. The teams essentially went bucket for bucket and went into halftime with a score of 40-39 in the Seminole's favor. The second half was more of the same, but the Knights got into a bit of foul trouble and started missing some of their shots while letting the game seemingly slip away. With five minutes left in the game all five starters were on the bench and the Knights were down by 9 points. In the next two minutes the UCF bench players would milk the clock to try to get rest for their starters and ended up cutting the lead to just 5 points with 3 minutes left. The starters came back fired up and Pearson Shannon spurred the Knights to a win scoring 8 of the games last 10 points. Shannon was a monster on offense and scored a game high 34 points. J.J. Bone also had another great game with 16 points. Freshman Michael Boyce was in some foul trouble throughout the game, but still turned in a near double-double performance with 10 points and 9 rebounds. Senior Seminoles center Esteban Burnette leads Florida State in points per game so far this season and had a great game with 13 points, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks. His mere presence under the basket forced UCF to get away from their "attack the basket" mentality and the Knights settled for a lot of jumpers today.

"This game certainly wasn't what we planned on, but the result will have to do," Nolan commented after the game. "It seemed like they were way more prepared than we were and we went shot for shot the entire first half. The second half they stayed hot and we didn't. It was great to see our bench step up and do exactly what we needed them to do in the last few minutes of the game. Shannon was an absolute monster today. His play today reminded me of his 45 point game against UNH last season. When he gets hot, there is no stopping him. Boyce is still playing great as well, averaging about 10 points and 7 rebounds per game thus far. Bone and Simmons are doing a great job in the backcourt for us as well, which was a big issue we had last season. Lets hope that we can keep the momentum up in Tampa next week."

The USF Bulls sit at 2-2 on the season and are the first of two Big East match ups for the UCF Knights this season, the other being the WVU Mountaineers. The USF/UCF rivalry has been well documented and UCF managed to pull out a 15 point win in their game last season. The Bulls return Senior Rodrigo Evanstar, their sharpshooting strong forward, this season and the Knights hope to be able to contain him this time around. It is interesting to note that Evanstar was one of Coach Nolan's most heavily recruited players during his tenure at USCU.

NOLAN'S KNIGHTS BEAT YET ANOTHER RIVAL, BLOW OUT USF

UCF Knights 7-1 (0-0) at USF Bulls 2-3 (0-0)
USF Sun Dome
Tampa, FL
November 26, 2014

Tampa, FL - The UCF Knights have blown out their Big East rival USF Bulls for the second straight year. Since picking up Nolan as their head coach, the Knights have played out of their minds and stunned everyone from players to fans to critics of the team. For the third time this season, the UCF defense clamped down and held their opponent to under 50 points. Sharpshooter Rodrigo Evanstar, who lit up the Knights defense last year, was held to just 2 points on the day. Junior center Diego Vasquez was a monster on USF's defense, but went down halfway through the first half with a pulled hamstring and sat for the rest of the game. The game was close until Vasquez went down, but the Knights went on an 18-6 run to end the first half and went into halftime with a 7 point lead. After halftime, the Knights came out and played stellar defense while scoring on almost every possession. Pearson Shannon had a game high 17 points and J.J. Bone turned in another solid effort with 15 points. Freshman Michael Boyce struggled in this game, going 3-11 from the floor and 0-2 from the line. The Knights outscored the Bulls by 20 points in the second half and went on to win in blowout fashion by 27 points.

"Three big wins in a row against stiff competition," Nolan commented after the win. "If we keep this up, we have a big chance to win all of our conference games this season. We only lost one last year, so winning them all isn't that big of a stretch. We are capping off our run of Florida teams this Saturday with a game at home against UNF and hope to go into our week off on a win streak. We set up our schedule to have next week off so we have more time to woo the recruits and try to get them signed by the December 7 deadline."

The UNF Ospreys have three seniors in their starting lineup and the match up to watch will be their senior PF Cal Jackson against Pearson Shannon. Jackson leads the Ospreys in scoring with 24.4 a game as does Shannon with 19.4. UNF comes into Orlando sitting at 4-4 with a few embarrassing losses on their resume. Their only hope of beating the red hot Knights it to get Jackson going and keeping him out of foul trouble as they have no other real scoring threats on their roster.

UCF vs UNF

UCF MAKES IT 6 IN A ROW WITH ANNIHILATION OF UNF

UCF Knights 8-1 (0-0) vs UNF Ospreys 4-5 (0-0)
UCF Arena
Orlando, FL
November 29, 2014

Orlando, FL - The UCF Knights have been playing stellar defense all year, and this game would be no exception. The Knights held the UNF Ospreys to just 36 points, marking the fourth time this season that UCF has held an opponent under 50 points. While the Knights defense was prolific again, the were also amazing on the offensive side of the ball. Pearson Shannon turned in another great game with 25 points and Michael Boyce turned in another near double-double with 15 points and 9 rebounds. Eddie Carlson also contributed with his first big game off the bench this season with 14 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 steal. Cal Jackson, UNF's only scoring threat who averages 22 points a game, was held to just 1-12 from the field and 3 points on the day. The Osprey stood no chance against a UCF squad clicking on all cylinders and lost to the Knights by 42 points.

"We did everything right, there is not much else to say," Nolan commented after the huge win. "Everyone played great and Boyce bounced back from his poor shooting performance last game and put up 15 points. We have next week off to focus on keeping our game at this level and trying to lock up some recruits."

The UCF Knights hope to lock up some good recruits this week and have focused their time on five prospects. Their top prospect is Fernandez Grundy, Mr. Basketball Virginia and a five star McDonald's All-American. Grundy is the sixth best player coming out of high school and the third best point guard. Second on the list is Rodrigo Udezue, Mr. Basketball Maryland, a four star recruit ranked twenty-sixth in the nation and the tenth best point guard in this year's class. In his seven seasons as a head coach at the NCAA level, Nolan has never landed a recruit higher than a three star projection.

2014-15 Recruiting Update

NOLAN SIGNS FIRST EVER FIVE STAR RECRUIT



Orlando, FL - For the first time in his career, Coach Nolan landed a five star recruit. Fernandez Grundy, the All-American Mr. Basketball out of Richmond, Virginia agreed to attend the University of Central Florida next season. Grundy will be battling seniors J.J. Bone and Nicholas Simmons for playing time in the 2015-16 season. With one scholarship left this season and only one graduating senior, it is up in the air whether he will try to lock up an additional recruit with a scholarship or look for players to walk on next year. With the pre-season cuts and an additional scholarship from this year, the Knights could look to make a big splash in the recruiting pool next year.

Nolan's other main recruit Rodrigo Udezue was locked up by the Duke Blue Devils. Udezue was the tenth ranked point guard, but the Knights likely don't mind as they hooked the third ranked point guard. Pearson Shannon is the only graduating senior for the Knights this year and nobody in their lineup has any pro draft buzz, so the Knights can either look for a replacement or look to their bench to fill his void.

After a successful recruiting week, UCF changes their focus to their last three pre-conference games. Up on slate are the Aggies of UC Davis and the Trojans of UALR in Orlando followed by a game against WVU in Morgantown.
