Scott Satterfield was introduced as Cincinnati’s new football coach on Monday afternoon, replacing Luke Fickell, who left for Wisconsin last week.
Satterfield, who has spent the past four seasons as the coach of Louisville, left the Cardinals unexpectedly in a deal that came together quickly Sunday night.
The odd wrinkle in this transition for Satterfield is that his former team, Louisville, plays his new team, Cincinnati, in the Fenway Bowl on Dec. 17.
Satterfield, who is now fronting the opponent of the team that he coached all season, has decided to step aside from bowl preparation with his new school.
