Orlando, FL – Myles Montgomery, a senior running back for the UCF Knights, is gearing up for a pivotal 2025 football season as he transitions into a starting role. After transferring from the Cincinnati Bearcats, Montgomery has made significant strides in his game, having rushed 51 times for 293 yards and scored four touchdowns last season with UCF. As the Knights prepare for the upcoming season, Montgomery’s performance will be crucial, particularly following the departure of former teammate R.J. Harvey, who has joined the Denver Broncos.
Montgomery aims to not only prove critics wrong but also showcase his abilities on the field. Known for his strong leadership, he considers UCF his “dream school” and is determined to give his utmost in every game. With increased attention now focused on him as a key player in the Knights’ offensive strategy, he is preparing for a more significant role this fall.

His commitment and confidence resonate with the coaching staff, which has praised his physical play and blocking skills, marking him as an essential component of the Knights’ offensive tactics.
As UCF continues to modernize its approach to football under head coach Scott Frost, the team looks to maintain its reputation for fast-paced play. Montgomery confirmed that the offensive strategy allows for rapid play, with the rotation of multiple running backs being a key feature. This style is designed to keep the opposing defenses on their toes, highlighting the team’s ambition to compete at a high level within the Big 12 Conference.
Montgomery’s excitement extends beyond the field; he is also a co-host of the podcast “UCFast Cast,” which aims to offer a deep dive into the lives of athletes beyond their performance in sports. He appreciates the electric atmosphere at UCF’s home games, where the community comes together to support the team, creating an engaging experience for players and fans alike.
With the team’s updated football roster now featuring 111 players and new jersey numbers, UCF is poised for a fresh start this season. Montgomery’s experience and skills on the field, combined with his enthusiasm for the game, position him as a player to watch as the Knights look to build on last season’s performances. His focus on preparation and readiness is expected to set the tone for not only his personal success but also the team’s overall trajectory in the competitive landscape of college football.
