Dave WeekleyHOST
Man, a couple of really crazy games.
Dave WeekleyHOST
Dior Johnson for UCF.
Dave WeekleyHOST
Last night, 41 points.
Dave WeekleyHOST
He was 13-15 from the field, 4-4 from three, 11-15 at the line.
Andrew CrowleyHOST
Final score, UCF 96, Florida Gulf Coast 95 in overtime.
Andrew CrowleyHOST
One of the big questions for the Golden Knights heading into this season was what would the return of Dior Johnson look like in Orlando? The last time he suited up for UCF, he averaged 2.9 points per game.
Andrew CrowleyHOST
On Monday, 41 points.
Andrew CrowleyHOST
He could have had 42.
Marc DanielsHOST
I'll get to the ugly part of the football performance last week.
Marc DanielsHOST
But what'd you make of Dior Johnson's 41 last night and UCF surviving against Florida Gulf Coast?
Matt MurschelGUEST
Yeah, and surviving is the key word there because, you know, you looked at that game and as great of a performance that Dior Johnson had with his 41 points, they felt like that game was in doubt all the way up to the very end.
Matt MurschelGUEST
And, you know, I think that impressed me the most was his ability to kind of turn it on, especially at the start of the second half.
Matt MurschelGUEST
I think he scored, what was it, 18, 15 of the first 18 points in the second half.

Marc DanielsHOST
Magic now head out west to play in Phoenix on Thursday.
Marc DanielsHOST
College basketball, number one Florida beat Miami last night, 77-67, a tip-off the new season.
Marc DanielsHOST
UCF got 41 from Dior Johnson and hung on to beat Florida Gulf Coast, 96-95 in overtime.
Brandon JadichHOST
Another almost disaster, Florida Gulf Coast at UCF in the state of Florida.
Brandon JadichHOST
UCF escapes in overtime 96-95 thanks to one incredible performance by Dior Johnson.
Brandon JadichHOST
41 points.
Brandon JadichHOST
Not just 41 points, but only 13 of 15 from the field.
Brandon JadichHOST
I don't think Florida Gulf Coast is a bad team.
Brandon JadichHOST
They should be a decent team in the A-Sun this year.
Brandon JadichHOST
But UCF just escaping thanks to Dior Johnson heroics.
Brandon JadichHOST
For Florida Gulf Coast, I've got to give a shout-out to Bryson Lucas in this game.
Justin VanderswanHOST
The Knights entered as 23-point favorites at home, so this was very shocking for sure.
Justin VanderswanHOST
And also shocking, well, maybe not shocking, I guess, the performance of the day from all over the sport was Dior Johnson.
Justin VanderswanHOST
Came back to the school he started his career at, and the question going into the year was whether or not he could bring his elite scoring with him from Tarleton State.
Justin VanderswanHOST
He was one of the best scorers in the country last season.
Justin VanderswanHOST
What a performance.
Justin VanderswanHOST
I gotta give a shout-out.
Justin VanderswanHOST
Dior Johnson was probably the best player of everyone this night.
Justin VanderswanHOST
The problem was the rest of the night's starters only combined for 13 points altogether.
TJ WalkerHOST
And of course, Kentucky played central Florida and needed a prayer at the horn and Alex Wilkins' heroics to be able to force overtime in that game.
TJ WalkerHOST
Well, I think Dior Johnson for Central Florida, their top scorer, I think he had 42 points last night, and they won by one point in overtime against some bum team.
TJ WalkerHOST
So some Kentucky fans are a little bit nervous.
TJ WalkerHOST
They could go out there and just win and cover the spread, win by 35, and I think people would just say, all right, that's what you should do.
Mark TitusHOST
idea.
Mark TitusHOST
Dior Johnson.
Dana BeersHOST
Didn't he average like 80 points two years ago?
Mark TitusHOST
I think so, yeah.
Matt JonesHOST
And, yes, you do end up with what? There have been guys.
Drew FranklinHOST
Dior Johnson last night.
Matt JonesHOST
Dior Johnson has played for seven schools.
Matt JonesHOST
I'm not saying that's what should happen.
Matt JonesHOST
But I do think the one transfer, that's a little much.
Mike RutherfordHOST
realize they did.
Mike RutherfordHOST
They've got Dior Johnson.
Trevor KelseyHOST
I think he's the only
Mike RutherfordHOST
guy that came back from last year's team, isn't he? Well, no.
DionHOST
I'm doing good.
DionHOST
very fun games that we get to recap uh shout out to Kentucky for making a Dior Johnson game fun to watch as well um Illinois always entertaining and then Louisville deciding to let Mercyhurst stay in it also made that game very fun as well
Greg WaddellHOST
interesting night of exhibition hoops had to have the basement quad box up and running at 7 p.m which is always a good feeling but uh Yeah, I'm excited.
Greg WaddellHOST
My brain is still stuck in Illinois thoughts right now.
