CINCINNATI — On3 ran down the Big 12 coaches under the most pressure heading into the 2024 football season and Scott Satterfield slotted in at No. 5 on the list.

"Following in Luke Fickell’s footsteps was never going to be easy for Scott Satterfield, but a 3-9 showing in Year 1 was certainly not what a program use to competing for conference championships was expecting," Simonton wrote. "Satterfield now has just two winning seasons in six years as a power conference head coach. 

"The Bearcats do project to be more competitive in his second season, though, as he brought in 45 newcomers (portal + high school recruiting) to reshape the roster. By Big 12 standards, Cincy’s schedule is quite favorable, so if Satterfield doesn’t have the program in contention for a bowl game, then his relocation tour may not last all that long."

Cincinnati kicks off its 2024 season on Aug. 31.
