Scott Satterfield was firmly on the hot seat at Louisville and now gets a better job with the Bearcats. So-so in game coach, but he’s a great recruiter

Cincinnati AD John Cunningham to ESPN on hiring Scott Satterfield, w/P5 experience: "It’s obviously important. You want someone who has seen it at the highest level and been there at the trenches calling the game and the plays at the highest level. That’s really important."

For a second I thought the Cats hired Marcus Satterfield and I was ready for chaos in the streets based on my South Carolina mentions of him this season. But from what I’ve researched, Scott Satterfield is a dog. I like it https://t.co/nyOI0Gt50P

In the end, I think Satterfield actually didn't make it weird at all.

He didn't win enough to make anyone overly upset about this, and he left in a manner and for a program that will result in him being universally despised here.
In his final act, the man was a unifier.
Let Scott Satterfield coach both teams!! https://t.co/4aLtSkwn6A
