Two conference games have been added to UCF's already tough schedule for 2006-07.

While most people were relaxing on Labor Day, UCF Coach Kirk Speraw was busy feasting on his basketball team's future.

Speraw, entering the final year of a three-year contract, hasn't had many off days as he prepares to build on a 14-15 campaign in 2005-06 -- his first losing season since 2000-01.
