Cincinnati Bearcats excited for challenge of opening the season against Nebraska football
Cincinnati Bearcats coach Scott Satterfield gave respect to Nebraska at the Big 12 media days earlier this week. Cincinnati and Nebraska will meet in the season-opening contest on August 28. The Bearcats are coming off a season that saw them go 5-7 last year. They were able to win their season opener against Towson last year, but the Huskers will present a different challenge. Satterfield is entering his third season with the Bearcats and enters the 2025 campaign looking to have his first winning season with the program. He knows it won't be easy against a Huskers team looking to play at a high level. 'We feel like we need to be hitting on all cylinders when you're starting the season playing against a team like Nebraska. There's been a little bit more sense of urgency in our building throughout the summer, getting ready for the first game, and we know it'll be a great challenge, and it's a great test. Obviously looking forward to that. ' Nebraska and its fans are also looking forward to the game. The program will look to secure its second consecutive season-opening victory, boasting ample talent on both sides of the football. It will be fun to get the season going, as the program itself looks to take the next step. The Huskers will open the 2025 college football season on Thursday, August 28, when the Huskers face the Cincinnati Bearcats at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. The kickoff time has been set for 8 p.m. CT.

Is this Scott Satterfield's 'best team' with Cincinnati Bearcats in Big 12 era?
FRISCO, TX – They are no longer the new team in the conference hoping to crash the party. Two years after first appearing in Big 12 media days in Arlington, Texas at AT&T Stadium, the Cincinnati Bearcats football program descended upon Frisco and The Ford Center at The Star Tuesday, July 8. They went from "Jerry's World", the home field of the Dallas Cowboys in 2023, to their practice facility some 40 minutes away in a planned community built for Cowboys organization. Big 12 mascots and cheerleaders pose for a group photo during Big 12 Media Days at The Star in Frisco, Texas, on July 8, UC came into the league at a partial share with UCF, Houston and BYU. Now they will receive anywhere from $37 million to $42 million in Big 12 revenue depending on which projections you believe. They will also have to hand out through revenue sharing approximately $20.5 million to their athletes after the House vs. NCAA ruling. Advertisement That, and it's the third year for head coach Scott Satterfield's staff − a time when most programs expect a return on their investment. With 39 new players (21 transfers and 18 freshmen) and a select group of returning players, the Bearcats hope to overcome the past two unsatisfying seasons. UC started 2-0 in 2023, then finished 1-9 with four single-digit losses. Last season's 5-2 start was followed by five straight losses. A bitter pill was the Pitt loss in the second week when a 27-6 late third quarter fizzled in front of home fans at Nippert Stadium. And, there were three more single-digit losses. Cincinnati head coach Scott Satterfield addresses the media during 2025 Big 12 Football Media Days at The Star in Frisco, Texas, on July 8, Why is this Cincinnati Bearcats team different? On paper and on the field, the Bearcats have the look of a Big 12 team, which wasn't the case two years ago. Advertisement They also return a healthy Dontay Corleone, a highly-valued nose tackle who was sidelined prior to last season with a blood clot in his lungs. Tight end Joe Royer is projected as an NFL first-round draft pick by some and also returned. Both Corleone and Royer could have left for pro opportunities and both returned. Both are of the "hometown hero" variety with Corleone coming from Colerain High School and Royer from Elder. Cincinnati Bearcats coach Satterfield talks of his 'best team' It was repeated several times Tuesday and in other interviews leading up to Big 12 media days that this is the best crop of Cincinnati Bearcats Satterfield has brought into a season. Previous media polls the past two years had the Bearcats near the bottom. Though no official media poll was done for 2025, consensus is UC is no worse than middle of the pack. Advertisement "Because of the players that we brought back that have great experience in the Big 12," Satterfield said when asked why he's bullish on his Bearcats. 'Our leaders are right here today (Brendan Sorsby, Dontay Corleone, Joe Royer, Gavin Gerhardt), I think we did a great job in the portal to get positions of need. Also, this is the best chemistry we've had with the guys that are on our roster. It's a connected football team." The connection was shared at a Frisco steakhouse Monday night with center Gerhardt and nose tackle Corleone ordering 32 oz. cuts. Corleone enjoyed his so much, he asked for one to go and no one blinked. Sorsby and Royer have eaten their share of steaks in the offseason, trying to woo some of the new transfers to become Bearcats. Cincinnati Bearcats AD John Cunningham sees 3rd year being pivotal If the third try is the charm, UC AD John Cunningham is more than ready to see bowl-game success out of the 2025 UC Bearcats under Satterfield. Advertisement "I've used this analogy a couple times, but year three, they talk about 'moving day' in golf on the third day," Cunningham said. "Year three is our moving year. We've got to advance, we've got to start playing better. We saw signs last year. We've got to take those extra steps and win those close games. That's going to be really important to our year."

Mandatory Credit: Raymond Carlin III-Imagn Images UC Bearcats quarterback Brendan Sorsby ready to disprove doubters Brendan Sorsby quickly resigned with the Cincinnati Bearcats after last season despite some other Power Four offers. He was integral in recruiting new offensive players. Though there's something to be said about flying under the radar, most UC personnel would disagree with a recent ranking of Big 12 quarterbacks listing Sorsby at No. 9. Advertisement "I wouldn't really say it's anything," Sorsby said shrugging off the list. "I've always had a little chipe on my shoulder. I've been kind of overlooked, maybe people didn't think as much of me as I think of myself. That's my job to go prove myself right." Said Satterfield, "There's some great ones in this league, but he can be one of the best ones. He's got to play within himself and we have to have a great surrounding cast, which I think we do. He's got all the tools. He's got a quick release, he can run, he's strong, he's competitive." Sorsby had the unique perspective Tuesday of being one of the few players on display who had actually played a game at the Ford Center at The Star. The Denton, Texas native's high school team once had a playoff game in the facility. 'The Godfather' Dontay Corleone is healthy As indicated by his two-steak appetite, Corleone is healthy and was a popular interview guest on many of the shows broadcasting from The Star. Opposing players and coaches approach him. Advertisement Once the season begins, that's not always the case. At least that's what Corleone hopes. "The hard work Niko (Football Performance Coach Palazeti) has put us through has helped us bond and that's going to go a long way," Corleone said. He understands that teams may underestimate the Bearcats based on last year's late skid, but says that's in the past. Now a homeowner (he bought one for his mom) he has a positive outlook for the year. "Buying a home at 22, coming from nothing, I wake up blessed every day," Corleone said. UC tight end Joe Royer had a reason to return Royer has met or already knows the tight ends that have made the NFL after being Cincinnati Bearcats. With an opportunity to leave for the 2025 NFL Draft, the Elder product joined Corleone in waiting for 2026. Advertisement "There's definitely a chip on our shoulder," Royer said. "I think we definitely are underrated and under-appreciated by the media, some of the things I'm seeing. We wouldn't want it any other way. We'll go out there and prove people wrong. I think the '25 Bearcats are going to be great." UC veteran center Gavin Gerhardt thinks he can leave on high note Gerhardt returns for an extra year and says the new offensive line could be better than recent offensive lines that led to Corey Kiner having back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons. "I would say we're definitely underrated," Gerhardt said. "We try not to listen to the outside noise, but I'm really excited about this year with this team. We're very connected, very passionate about playing for one another and hopefully bringing a championship back to Cincinnati." Advertisement Counting his redshirt year of 2020, this will be Gerhardt's sixth season. He's been around long enough to have played four games during UC's 2021 College Football Playoff season which ended not far from Frisco with a Cotton Bowl loss to Alabama. His road to returning to a bowl would come early July 9. The four Bearcats who came to Frisco will be due in for morning workouts.

Fallen Duncan police officer to be inducted into national memorial
DUNCAN, S.C. (WSPA) – An officer with the Duncan Police Department who was killed in the line of duty 86 years ago will be inducted into the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial next week. On June 23, 1939, Officer Charlie Smith arrested and a drunk man, Duncan Police Chief Greg Satterfield said. Smith even told the man that once he sobered up, he'd get some dinner. 'What Officer Smith didn't know was that Mr. Moore had stowed a shotgun back behind the old coal storage building for the railroad,' explained Satterfield. 'So, he calls Charlie out. Charlie gets out of his patrol vehicle and meets him around the corner of that building where, Mr. Moore shot him in the in the leg.' Officer Smith died from the gunshot. Smith's granddaughter, Teresa Proctor, said that while she never got to meet her grandfather, stories of him have prevailed through the generations. She recalled stories her mother would share with her about her late grandfather. 'Oh, she really loved her father. Her mother died when she was three years old, so she was very close to her father and talked about what a good dad he was,' Proctor said. 'It's an honor that they're recognizing my grandfather after all these years.' Smith's family members, along with Chief Satterfield and police officers will attend the induction ceremony in Washington, D.C. on May 13. 'We always say 'Whether it's fallen first responders, fallen military, we will never forget.' Therefore, 86 years later, we never forgot Charlie Smith and got his name on the wall to give him the recognition that he deserved,' Satterfield remarked. The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial is, according to their website, 'the nation's monument to law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.' The ceremony takes place during National Police Week, from May 11 to May 17. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Like Spring, Asparagus Season Will Be Over Before You Know It
In Steven Satterfield's seasonal cookbook Root to Leaf, he writes 'As soon as daylight savings time begins, I start texting my produce guy. 'Have you seen any asparagus at the market yet?' I ask. 'No, maybe next week, still waiting.' Later that week, I prompt him again, 'Asparagus? Green garlic? Peas?'' Satterfield, the chef and owner of Miller Union in Atlanta, is not alone in his eager anticipation of asparagus, which might be the seasonal vegetable that most embodies the arrival of spring for many cooks. All winter, asparagus hides deep in the cold ground. The freezing temperatures help the plant slowly develop a sweet, grassy flavor and tender texture. As spring temperatures arrive and asparagus shoots finally emerge, they're not so different from many of us: pale, tired of winter, and eager to see the sun again. But this moment of spring doesn't last long. May is the peak of asparagus season for many parts of the country. If you're lucky to live close enough to a farmer's market to buy local asparagus in season, you'll be shocked by the difference. It is a complex but tender delicacy, subtle in some ways and bold in others. The asparagus available year-round in grocery stores simply doesn't compare. It can be bitter, woody, or simply not as flavorful as peak asparagus harvested in season. (MORE: Low Crawfish Prices Make For Plentiful Etouffee) Many chefs opt to prepare asparagus simply, roasting in the oven, shaving into slivers over a salad, or dropping it on the grill for a quick, smoky sear. It is also the ideal, bold ingredient for combining the spring bounty of a farmer's market trip into a large frittata. Made from fresh, local eggs, a big handful of herbs, asparagus, and a little cheese, it comes together quickly and keeps well in the refrigerator. A quiche with a crackling crust might be more elegant, but the simplicity of a frittata means that these ingredients shine. Farmer's Market Frittata 1 bunch asparagus 1 handful spring herbs, chives, pea shoots, tarragon or dill can work 6 eggs ½ cup goat cheese or other local soft cheese, crumbled Instructions Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Toss asparagus with olive oil and a pinch of salt and roast for ten to twelve minutes, until the stalks are no longer crisp but not yet soggy. Cool and chop into bite size pieces. Finely chop spring herbs. In a large bowl, combine eggs, cheese, chopped herbs, and season generously with salt and fresh cracked pepper. Beat until fully combined. In a twelve-inch skillet over medium heat, add chopped asparagus and drizzle generously with olive oil. Pour egg mixture into the pan, cooking until the top is almost set, four or five minutes. Finish in the oven for three minutes or until the eggs are fully cooked. writer Wyatt Williams is exploring the relationship between weather, food, agriculture, and the natural world.
