Biographical History

UCF Football began in January 1979 when the newly inaugurated Dr. Trevor Colborn announced he would look into a football team for the university. Within several months, Dr. Colborn and Athletics Director Jack O'Leary approved the formation of a new football team for UCF, which started play later that fall in NCAA Division III. Since then, UCF Football has seen enormous growth both with the success of its former players as well as its facilities. Several players went on to have stellar careers in the NFL, including UCF's most famous player, Daunte Culpepper. UCF Football comes home to the Brighthouse Networks Stadium in September 2007 after playing their first twenty eight seasons at the Citrus Bowl in downtown Orlando, Florida.

Mr. O’Shaughnessy is a graduate of UCF where he participated in Varsity collegiate baseball and football and was a radio commentator for UCF football. He is the proprietor of Michael O’Shaughnessy Real Estate Brokers, member of the Winter Park Development Corporation, and the founder of The Millennium Woman Foundation. Mr. O’Shaughnessy is also the author of the books "Millennium Woman - A Guideline to Personal Security and Financial Prosperity for Today's Woman" (2000) and "Blue Collar Iron Man" (2006). An avid paddleboarder, Mr. O'Shaughnessy holds three Guiness world records and two world records in the sport which includes the fastest crossing of the English channel, Florida Straights, Cuba to the United States, Irish Sea and Scotland's largest body of fresh water, Loch Ness. These and other paddleboarding records held by Mr. O'Shaughnessy can be found at www.paddleboards.com . Mr. O’Shaughnessy is still active with UCF Athletics and resides in Ponce Inlet with his wife and children.
