Decision looming in coaching search? December 5th UPDATE)
Scratch Scott Satterfield. Saturday afternoon Cameron Teague of the Louisville Courier-Journal quoted Satterfield as saying he was staying with the Cardinals. His story is behind the paper’s paywall but here is the Tweet from Teague:
BREAKING: Louisville head coach Scott Satterfield tells the Courier Journal he is staying at Louisville and is not going to South Carolina.
"I have no intention of leaving Louisville,” Satterfield told me. https://t.co/rizRJdRkew

Tanner interviewed Satterfield Friday, flying to Bowling Green, KY for the meeting, and was scheduled to interview Louisiana coach Billy Napier today in Louisiana. Tanner is to meet tonight with university president Bob Caslen, and via Zoom with three board members. A decision could come from that meeting. With Satterfield out, Oklahoma assistant head coach Shane Beamer and Napier appear to be the top two. A source told us this morning Beamer has support from several board members. We also have been told some big financial backers of the program also support Beamer. But, the Napier interview could change all that. Tanner also has had confirmed interviews with Coastal Carolina coach Jamey Chadwell, Florida offensive coordinator Brian Johnson and Houston Texas outside linebackers coach Chris Rumph.
