UCF’s Gus Malzahn: Knights on track with no ‘ugly stuff’ during first spring scrimmage

UCF players were put through their paces for more than two hours as the Knights participated in their first live scrimmage of spring football camp Saturday at the Bounce House.

The team wrapped up the eighth of its 15 practices in front of a small crowd, many of whom sought shade under umbrellas or coverings as temperatures climbed to the mid-90s before noon.

“There’s nothing like a scrimmage,” new UCF coach Gus Malzahn said. “That’s when you as a coach, you’re able to evaluate everything. Everything is clear.

For the first time this spring, all the quarterbacks except for incumbent Dillon Gabriel were live with defenders allowed to tackle as well.
