  SEPT 13 SUN BELT OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Reese White, Coastal Carolina, (Jr., RB - Sandy Springs, Ga.),...Chanticleers junior running back Reese White rushed for a career-high 102 yards and three touchdowns in Coastal Carolina's 49-22 victory over Kansas. The 100-yard rushing game was the first of the Sandy Springs, Ga., native's career, while his three rushing touchdowns are the most by a Sun Belt running back in a single game this season. - Sun Belt Football

  Reese White was thinking even bigger for No. 17 Coastal Carolina after his strong start to the season. White finished with 102 yards and three rushing touchdowns and the Chanticleers beat Kansas for a third straight year, 49-22, as the fledging FBS program hosted a Power Five team for the first time Friday night. White is a junior who was a backup behind last year's rushing leader, C.J. Marable, during Coastal's breakthrough season in college football's top division. So far, White is filling in very nicely. He had two rushing touchdowns in a 52-14 victory over The Citadel last week and wondered if he couldn't do even better.

How about his first-ever 100-yard performance and those three critical TDs. "I wanted to add one to the total," he said. "I thought, "Why not go for three?’ and I did it." So is four on the table when Coastal Carolina travels to play Buffalo next week? "Maybe," White said with grin. Quarterback Grayson McCall threw for two scores and ran for a third in the victory. It was a big spot for a program on the rise and Kansas (1-1) didn't have the firepower to spoil the home team's "White Out" promotion in front of the largest crowd here ever at 17,697. "I never imagined this could happen," said freshman defensive tackle Josiah Stewart, who set a team record with 3 1-2 sacks. "It's unreal." - Coastal Carolina/AP College Football

  One period of Georgia Tech's practice Tuesday was dedicated to the one-on-one pass-rush drill. Among the more impressive players was defensive tackle Ja'Quon Griffin. The drill is basic, with one defensive lineman rushing upfield against an offensive lineman, generally a defensive end vs. an offensive tackle or a defensive tackle vs. a guard or center. Griffin's quickness was on full display, using his quickness at the snap to get past right guard Ryan Johnson.

Defensive coordinator Andrew Thacker said what might have been clear to anyone watching the drill, that Griffin has the quickest first step of any of the Yellow Jackets' defensive linemen. "That's one of his dominant traits, obviously," Thacker said Tuesday following Tech's fourth practice of the preseason. Thacker said that Griffin also excels at recognizing pass plays and transitioning from playing the run to rushing the passer. Listed at 6-foot and 258 pounds, Griffin doesn't have the size that Thacker and coach Geoff Collins have sought on the recruiting trail. And his size can be a limitation when facing offensive linemen who weigh 50 or 60 pounds more than him. But it hasn't kept him from being in the defensive tackle rotation for the past two seasons. - Atlanta Journal Constitution

  Coastal Carolina will begin the 2021 season as a top 25 team. The coaches poll is voted on by 65 Football Bowl Subdivision coaches through the American Football Coaches Association, including Coastal's Jamey Chadwell. The Chants finished the 2020 season ranked 14th in both the Associated Press Top 25 Poll and coaches poll, and 12th in the final College Football Playoff Ranking. CCU went 11-1 with an overtime loss to Liberty in the Cure Bowl after not posting a winning record in three previous seasons at the FBS level, and knocked off fellow top-25 programs BYU and Louisiana-Lafayette during the 2020 season.

Coastal returns 19 of 22 starters on offense and defense this season, as well as most of its primary special teams players. The Chants are joined in the top 25 by No. 23 Louisiana, giving the Sun Belt Conference two teams in the preseason ranking. Coastal is a co-favorite to win the conference's East Division with Appalachian State in the preseason Sun Belt coaches poll, while Louisiana is the favorite to win the West Division and conference overall. - Myrtle Beach Online

  08/14/21 - CJ SchrimpfrSr/2022, Coastal Carolina, 5-08, 235 (DS#999 LS) + More +

  Super senior long snapper CJ Schrimpf has been named to the 2021 Patrick Mannelly Award watch list it was announced today. Named after former NFL long snapper Patrick Mannelly, the Patrick Mannelly Award will be presented again this season to the best FBS senior long snapper. Named to the 2021 Phil Steele Preseason SBC All-Conference third team, Schrimpf has played in all 24 games over the last two seasons for the Chants, snapping for punts, field goals, and extra points.

Schrimpf, who has already earned a bachelor's degree in communication and is working on a second degree in recreation and sport management, has not had an errant snap as a Chant and was the snapper on placekicker Massimo Biscardi's school-record tying 53-yard field goal in the season opener versus Eastern Michigan in 2019 and the game-winning 40-yard field goal at No. 21 Louisiana last season, the Chants' first-ever win over a top-25 nationally ranked FBS opponent. He has helped Biscardi go 26-of-33 in field goal attempts and 82-of-88 on PATs over the last two seasons and has recorded three total tackles on punt coverage. - Coastal Carolina Football

  Football coaches in the Sun Belt Conference have seen the error of their ways. After Coastal Carolina went undefeated in the conference last season despite being picked to finish last by the league's coaches, the Chanticleers are the coaches' co-favorite to win the East Division in 2021. The Chants and Appalachian State each received 44 points in the preseason coaches' poll released Tuesday. Both teams are still behind Louisiana in the poll, however. They each received five points fewer than the West Division favorite. Behind CCU and App. State in the poll in the East Division are Georgia State (24), Georgia Southern (20) and Troy (18). Coastal plays App. State at Kidd Brewer Stadium in Boone, N.C., on Wednesday, Oct. 20 in what might be the Chants' most important game of the season. Both CCU and Louisiana were ranked in the top 15 of the final AP Top 25 poll last season and won't play this season unless they meet in the conference championship game. They were scheduled to play in the title game last season but it was canceled due to coronavirus cases within the CCU program. CCU went 11-1 last season and Louisiana 10-1 with its only loss to CCU on a field goal in the final seconds. - Myrtle Beach Online
