It was a busy Tuesday for the Bearcats. Not only did they introduce their coordinators (Tom Manning on offense, Bryan Brown on defense), they received four additions from the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Cincinnati announced wide receivers Dee Wiggins and Sterling Berkhalter would transfer from Louisville and North Carolina A&T, while tight end Joey Beljan is moving from Western Kentucky and offensive lineman Corey Bullock is headed from North Carolina Central.

Naturally, coach Scott Satterfield was pleased with the additions and the direction they have the program headed.

"It is extremely important now to bring guys in that will help compete right away and that is what we are doing," he said. "Bringing them in now is important because they can go through spring and summer training. It never ends and will continue to go. Recruiting never stops.”
