Cincinnati Bearcats football head coach, Scott Satterfield, has confirmed that two players will be leaving the program. The news comes as a surprise to many, as both players were expected to be key contributors to the team’s success this season.
According to sources close to the program, the two players who will be leaving the Bearcats are sophomore wide receiver, Tyler Scott, and junior defensive lineman, Malik Vann. Both players have been with the program for several years and have made significant contributions on the field.
Scott, a 6’2″ wide receiver from Norton, Ohio, had a breakout season as a freshman, hauling in 27 receptions for 334 yards and three touchdowns. He was expected to be a key target for quarterback, Ben Bryant, this season.
Vann, a 6’3″ defensive lineman from Cincinnati, Ohio, has been a stalwart on the Bearcats’ defensive line for the past two seasons. He has recorded 34 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, and 5.5 sacks in his career.
The reasons for Scott and Vann’s departures from the program have not been officially disclosed. However, sources close to the program indicate that both players are leaving for personal reasons.
“We appreciate the contributions that Tyler and Malik have made to our program,” said Coach Satterfield. “We wish them both the best in their future endeavors.”
The loss of Scott and Vann will undoubtedly be felt by the Bearcats, as both players were expected to be key contributors to the team’s success this season. However, Coach Satterfield and his staff are confident that they have the talent and depth to overcome these losses.
“We have a deep and talented roster, and we’re confident that our players will step up and fill the void left by Tyler and Malik,” said Coach Satterfield.
The Bearcats will look to regroup and refocus as they prepare for their next game. Despite the loss of two key players, the team remains committed to its goal of winning the American Athletic Conference championship and making a deep run in the postseason.
