The junior has emerged as perhaps CCU's most dangerous playmaker to help the Chants (9-0) reach No. 18 in the College Football Playoff ranking, and he is expected to have an opportunity to prove himself in the NFL when he chooses to leave school. "He's a special, special player. We think he's a next level player," CCU head coach Jamey Chadwell said. "He's 6-4, 250 and he runs really well. He's very gifted from a standpoint of being able to run and being very physical and strong, just a natural strength. He's got great hands. "The way the NFL is and the way they use tight ends I do think he has a good shot of having a chance to continue his playing career beyond college. He has that type of skill set."Likely has 17 receptions for 423 yards and fo ur TDs in eight games this season - which are all second or third on the team - for an average of 24.9 yards per catch, which is in the top five in the country. His production has come despite missing a game and otherwise playing through an undisclosed l ower body injury that will require surgery after the season, according to Likely and Chadwell. "He's got a lot of toughness," Chadwell said. "He was banged up and we're trying to work him back in slowly and the last couple weeks he's gotten accustomed to his injury and playing through the pain, and he's had two really big games the last couple weeks and he's a huge part of our offense. He makes us very dynamic." - Myrtle Beach Online

If you saw Coastal Carolina junior cornerback D'Jordan Strong during the team's break from football activities due to the coronavirus in the spring and early summer, chances are he was carrying and tossing a football. Strong joined the Chanticleers from Northeast Mississippi Community College in January, in time for CCU's early spring practices in February and early March. During those sessions, defensive backs coach Bryant Foster was impressed with Strong's ability to cover wide receivers, and he also noted that Strong was dropping the ball a lot. Strong had just one interception in two years of JUCO football - though he notes he had a 100-yard interception return negated by a penalty - while playing predominantly single man-to-man coverage."I used to drop a lot of balls in the spring, and coach Foster texted me when coronavirus was going on big-time and said, 'Hey man, don't think I'm being funny, but you get you a football and just walk around and throw it in the air and catch it and see how it feels. Man, you could lead the conference in interceptions this season and be a first-team Sun Belt cornerback because you've got the ability to do it. If you just do this one little thing you've got potential to be something,' " Strong recalled. "Th at's what I did, and now I've got five interceptions and that's crazy because coach Foster called it." - Myrtle Beach Online

Junior tight end Isaiah Likely was a big part of the CCU offense early in the season, but he has been hampered by a lower body injury of late that forced him to miss the Louisiana game on Oct. 17 and has affected his production. He also just hasn't been targeted much in recent games. In the three games prior to Saturday, Likely had three catches for 17 yards. But he was a focus Saturday. The big and fast 6-foot-4, 245-pounder was targeted on CCU's first offensive play despite having two Mountaineers in coverage and was hit by Grayson McCall for a 75-yard TD. He finished with three catches for 118 yards and had a drop that would have been a big gain."Whether I'm getting involved or not I love seeing my team celebrate, seeing my team in the end zo ne, blowing teams out and staying undefeated," Likely said. "So it happened today where we knew what they were going to do with the linebackers and safety, giving me the ball and letting me go do what they recruited, it was a just a fantastic opportunity ." Likely now has 13 receptions for 350 yards and four TDs this season for an average of nearly 27 yards per catch. - Myrtle Beach Online
