03/08/23 - Dee Wiggins, rSr/2024, Cincinnati + More +

Louisville transfer Dee Wiggins, a 6-foot-3, 195-pound wide receiver, found several balls Monday. Then again, after transferring from the Miami Hurricanes to Louisville, he's finally comfortable with a set of plays. "The transition for me is 100% perfect," Wiggins said. "This is my first year ever having the same playbook back-to-back. Since my freshman year I've had a different coach every year. I feel more confident and ready." A season-ending injury limited Wiggins to three games at Louisville last year.

He's now on a team that's about to have two receivers drafted into the NFL (Tyler Scott and Tre Tucker) and could fill a void. "Going hard every rep, that's a blessing!" Wiggins said of his day's work. "It's really on me to come out here and do it every day and be consistent. No matter where you go, you've got an opportunity. God created them, you've got to make them." The most experienced returning receiver is Chris Scott, who has added weight and is 6-foot-2, 205 pounds. The physiques of Washington State transfer Donovan Ollie, at 6-foot-3, 212 pounds, and 6-foot-4, 198-pound Sterling Berkhalter of North Carolina A&T (by way of Princeton High) are notable. - Cincinnati Enquirer

01/12/23 - Joey Beljan, rSr/2024, Cincinnati + More +

Western Kentucky's football team took another loss to the NCAA transfer portal on Tuesday. Redshirt junior tight end Joey Beljan, who tallied 15 catches for 191 yards and four touchdowns this past season for WKU, was among a group of transfer signees announced Tuesday by Cincinnati. The departure of Beljan, a 6-foot-3, 250-pound native of Holland, N.J., leaves the Tops even thinner at the tight end position. - BG Daily News

01/12/23 - Malik Vann, rSr/2024, Cincinnati + More +

The University of Cincinnati's newly enlarged recruiting department announced five more transfers on Tuesday, adding to their latest recruiting class. But, as coach Scott Satterfield has said, "you have to recruit your own players". Though he never officially left, the biggest news on the Bearcat roster Tuesday was the return for a sixth year of eligibility for defensive lineman Malik Vann. Vann announced the news on Instagram in the afternoon and it was confirmed by University sources.

The 6-foot-4, 275-pound Vann played in only two games this season, suffering a pectoral injury in the home victory against Kennesaw State. He's been with the team since 2018 and has played in 49 career games. His best season came in 2021 when the Bearcats went to the Cotton Bowl in the national semifinal game against Alabama. He had 33.5 tackles that year, 8.5 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks. He now joins veteran Jowon Briggs on the new Bearcats defensive line coached by new defensive coordinator Bryan Brown. Brown's defensive line at Louisville led the nation in sacks last season. - Cincinnati Enquirer

01/11/23 - D.J. Taylor, rJr/2025, Cincinnati + More +

On the first day new Bearcats coach Scott Satterfield's recruiting department was announced, the new staffers raided the Valley of the Sun for a pair of transfers, bringing the number of former Arizona State Sun Devils on the roster to three. Quarterback Emory Jones, who played one year in Tempe and was previously was a Florida Gator, was already here. By Monday afternoon, teammates Carter Brown and D.J. Taylor had joined him.

A 5-foot-10 cornerback from Tampa Catholic High in Florida, he has been at Arizona State three seasons and is a redshirt junior. His specialty has been returning kicks as he's averaged 24.5 yards over his three years. That includes a 100-yard return for a touchdown his freshman year. He also has averaged 9.1 yards on punt returns. Defensively, he had 16 tackles this past season and one tackle for loss. - Cincinnati Enquirer

01/11/23 - Emory Jones, rSr/2024, Cincinnati + More +

Quarterback Emory Jones was announced on Coach Satterfield's first signing day. During Arizona State's difficult 3-9 season he was in eight games and threw for seven touchdowns. He had games of 261 yards vs. Utah, 243 vs. USC and 227 vs. Stanford. He was 7-for-9 for 59 yards when the Sun Devils upset then-top-25 Washington State.

The 6-foot-2, 211-pound signal caller was with Florida for four years and started in 2021 throwing for 2,734 yards and 19 touchdowns while running for 758 yards. "Emory is the guy who's played in the SEC," Satterfield said on signing day. "He's won big games in the SEC. I do think he's got a tremendous upside. He's got a lot of talent. He's got a really good arm and he can run as well. So it kind of fits what we want with that. I also believe it's important to be able to land a quarterback of his caliber at this stage to be able to help us in the wide receiver room." - Cincinnati Enquirer
