UCF head coach George O'Leary is not the friendliest guy with the media. First, he's probably still nursing wounds over the fact that nosey reporters were responsible for discovering a fudge in his resume, thus costing him the Notre Dame job before he'd coached a down. Second, he refused to speak to the Orlando Sentinel earlier this year following what he deemed "inaccurate" reporting by the paper on the death of UCF football player Ereck Plancher. "Hi sexy!" media members calling the number were greeted. "You're reached the live, one-on-one fantasy line."Conference USA: now coming to you for $1.99 for the first two minutes and $0.99 for every minute afterwards. Reporters listened for ten to fifteen minutes just to make sure the voice was in fact not O'Leary, and then alerted UCF officals to the error.
