George O'Leary - Football (Coach) - 2004-15

O'Leary coached the Knights from 2004-2015, putting the program on the map with important victories and highly-successful seasons. O'Leary guided the Knights to a 12-1 record in 2013, which was then a program-record for victories in a season. That year was capped off with a 52-42 victory over Baylor in the Fiesta Bowl and a No. 10-ranking in the Associated Press poll, which was then the highest ranking the Knights had ever attained. O'Leary was responsible for UCF's first-ever bowl game, first-ever bowl win and its first four conference championships. He also oversaw the modernization of UCF's Football Facilities, including the addition of Nicholson Fieldhouse and (then) Bright House Networks Stadium.
