All signs point to Emory Jones being QB1.

With Ben Bryant deciding to transfer to Northwestern, I think that's a safe assumption that Emory will be QB1. 

Rumors that Florida WR transfer Xzavier Henderson will be announcing his decision to transfer to UC soon. Much needed depth to a very thin WR room. Added UK OL transfer Deondre Buford yesterday. Starting to feel a little better with what UC can do this year. Offense has always been the biggest question mark.

I don't expect UC to come out and wow people. But I think 6-6 is very viable. I think satterfield will have a lot of success at UC.

UC has won 9 or more games in 12 of the past 16 years. Expectations for UC football should always be to make a bowl game and compete for the conference championship. 

Given the circumstances of a new coaching staff, roster turnover, and conference transition, I think 6-6 would be a win for Satterfield in year 1. 

The years UC didn't win 9 games:

2010- Year 1 of Butch Jones 

4-8 followed by back to back 10 win seasons

2015-2017- Final two years of Tuberville (7-6 ; 4-8) and year 1 of Fickell (4-8).

Followed by a 4 year span of going 44-7. 

 

UC was picked by the media to finish 13th out of 14 teams this coming season. I had them at 8 in the poll I submitted.
