The 5 books that men should get on their reading list (according to BookTokker Jack Edwards)
Some top choices for better men DUDES DONT READ. That’s the sorry tale we hear about publishing these days: how men’s demand for novels has declined, and so the supply of fiction that might appeal to them has dried up. But Esquire’s contributing literary editor, Jack Ben Edwards, is here to provide a counterargument, with a mix of contemporary and classic tales.

UCF Men’s Basketball Begins Conference Play Wednesday
The UCF Knights will face the Wichita State Shockers on Wednesday as UCF will enter its final conference season as a member of the American Athletic Conference. The Knights own the third best record in the AAC thus far in the season at 9-3, behind #3 Houston and Memphis. Those three losses have come by a combined seven points. Incredibly, that 9-3 record is actually tied for UCF’s worst non-conference record since 2015-16 (excluding the 2020 shortened season). Yes, that is actually true.
UCF’s Knights Basketball Player Taylor Hendricks Is as Good as Advertised
It’s not often that a UCF Knights basketball player is showing NBA-level potential, especially as a freshman. Taylor Hendricks is defying that notion, however. Hendricks is the highest rated recruit in UCF history, and has now won an AAC record four consecutive Rookie of the Week awards in the conference. Immediately upon his arrival he has cemented himself as the best player on the team. Hendricks is averaging 15.6 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks per game.

UCF Knights Best Moments from the War on I-4 with USF Bulls
The UCF Knights defeated the USF Bulls 46-39 to secure a spot in the American Athletic Conference championship game at Tulane (Dec. 3). With the victory, the Knights built an 8-6 lead in the all-time series between the two rival schools, a record that will stand for quite a while, as UCF is leaving USF behind and joining the Big 12 Conference. The rivalry, dubbed the “War on I-4,” will come to a halt, but the memories it left behind will never be forgotten.

Can UCF Knights Still Make a New Year's Six Bowl?
Let’s establish that the UCF Knights securing a New Years’ Six bid would take quite a bit of drama to unfold. They have not been eliminated from consideration, however. If head coach Gus Malzahn and the Knights had managed to knock off Navy, they could have coasted into the Cotton Bowl by winning at USF and then at home in the American Athletic Conference championship game.
UCF Opens Season vs UNC Asheville: Players to Watch
The UCF Knights will open their final season as a member of the AAC at home vs the Big South Conference member UNC Asheville Bulldogs at 7 p.m. tonight. The Bulldogs were 17-15 last season and played in the College Basketball Invitational postseason tournament. Here is a look at two players from each team to watch in this game, beginning with the Knights. Taylor Hendricks - Forward Plain and simple, Taylor is a player to watch because he is the highest rated recruit in UCF’s history as a program.
UCF Knights Men's Basketball Season Preview
The UCF Knights Men’s Basketball team had an up and down 2021-22 season, compiling an 18-12 record overall with a 9-9 record in the American Athletic Conference. The Knights proved they were a capable bunch by beating two Sweet 16 teams (Michigan and Miami), but ultimately the team could never find consistency and the 9-2 start to the season fizzled out. The 2022-23 season is a new chapter, and with it comes a roster that is comprised of just four players that were on the team last year.
Is Tulane a Legit AAC Contender?
As UCF begins to climb through the AAC schedule and has started 5-1 this season, there's another AAC team catching some attention. It has been a long time since Tulane has been a relevant football program. That was expected to continue this year, as the Green Wave were picked to finish seventh in the preseason AAC poll. They have responded by winning six of their first seven games including their first three conference games.
A Look at Big XII Football through Week 6
The Big XII has been one of the most entertaining college football conferences to watch so far this season. One of the main reasons for that is the uprising of the nationally ranked Kansas Jayhawks. Yes, you read that right. While two Kansas quarterbacks–Jalon Daniels and Jason Bean–have combined for 1,358 yards, completing 67.1% of their passes at 9.5 yards per attempt, and thrown 15 touchdowns compared to two interceptions, it’s the defense that’s probably most surprising.
Former UCF Knights Running Back Latavius Murray Signs with the National Football League's Denver Broncos
The Denver Broncos took a huge blow on Sunday to their running back room, as their young stud Javonte Williams went down with what was later diagnosed as an ACL tear, effectively ending his season. Denver will look to fill the gap with 32-year-old Latavius Murray, who was a huge part of the UCF Knights’ 2010 Liberty Bowl win over Georgia. He signed with the Denver Broncos on Monday.
Will UCF RB Johnny Richardson See More Touches?
Few running backs have the explosive ability of Johnny Richardson. The junior from Lake Wales, Fla. is truly dynamic and deserving of more touches despite the talent that’s also a part of the UCF Knights offense. Isaiah Bowser leads the Knights in rushing attempts so far in 2022 with 50. Head coach Gus Malzahn likes to establish him with the inside power game, especially early in contests.
Is it Time for UCF Knights to Unleash Kicker Colton Boomer?
The UCF Knights showed on Friday night that there are multiple facets of their game that need improvement, and fast. One of those areas of needed improvement is the kicking game. This has been a theme for the Knights since 2020, when Daniel Obarski took over the kicking duties after Matthew Wright went to the NFL. Obarski has hit just 60% of his field goal attempts in his career. On kicks over 30 yards, that number shrinks to 50%.
College Football Playoff Votes to Expand Field to 12 Teams
The College Football Playoff has received varying levels of support for its current four-team format. Most members of Power Five conferences were happy with four teams, and Group of Five members mostly advocated for expansion. The call for change quickly gained traction after UCF was left out of both the 2017 and 2018 College Football Playoff after undefeated regular seasons. It seems that the scales have tipped recently, as the Board of Managers has confirmed an expansion to twelve teams by 2026.
Around the American Athletic Conference, Week 1 Matchups for Cincinnati Bearcats, Houston Cougars
Beyond the UCF Knights playing South Carolina State on Sep. 1, there are other games to take notice of within the American Athletic Conference (AAC), there are a handful of games with big implications right off the bat that could give a glimpse of what the Knights will face later this season. Three teams will face a ranked opponent, and four teams will face a Power Five school. Here is a brief outline of each non-FCS matchup around the AAC.
Can Former UCF Knight Tre Nixon Make the Patriots’ Roster?
During Tre Nixon’s career at UCF (2018-2020), he caught 108 passes, 1,652 yards, 15.3 average, and 13 touchdowns. He went on to be selected by the New England Patriots in the seventh round of the 2021 NFL Draft. After missing the cut to make the Patriots’ roster in 2021, Tre Nixon cleared waivers and was signed to New England’s practice squad. He had appeared in three preseason games before being cut, and spent the entire regular season on the practice squad.
UCF Knights and Addition Financial Agree to Naming Rights Extension for Basketball Arena
UCF Athletic Director Terry Mohajir has orchestrated another naming rights’ deal. This time an extension of Addition Financial’s contract to sponsor the Knights’ basketball arena. The credit union has sponsored the arena since 2013, at which time it was called CFE Credit Union. The agreement adds to a list of four deals UCF Athletics has struck in 2022, most notably the renaming of the football stadium to FBC Mortgage Stadium.
Will an UCF, Cincinnati, SMU, or Houston Reach the College Football Playoffs?
The selection process for the College Football Playoff is tough to decipher, especially with there being a revolving door of committee members. One thing that is for certain, though, is it is extremely tough for any Group of Five conference member to be placed in the top four—even after an undefeated season. That means that teams from the American Athletic Conference (AAC) could have a difficult time making it. Here's why. Last year we found out that it is not impossible.

Why We Should Bring Back... Animaniacs - VultureHound Magazine
“Hellooooooo, Nurse!” Animaniacs holds a special place in my heart because I watched it intermittently as a kid when it was on (mainly until Looney Toons or something better started up on Toonami) but only as an adult (see: physically grown) did I appreciate it for what it was. Produced by that somewhat famous prodigal son Mr Steven Spielberg, Animaniacs is a perfect example of what happens when a clever adult gets given the reins on what could have been a mundane kids’s show.

CAFÉ Talks Ep. 07 - The Wine Experience
The experience of dining would not be complete without a great, appropriately matched bottle of wine. What goes into the production of that bottle is a long process that begins with the farmer and the terror. The quality of the wine, as every vintner will tell you, is determined by the quality of the grape and the grape depends on the soil, the sun, the temperature, amount of rainfall, and nurturing from the person who works the soil and cares for the fruit.
