There are two types of tight ends. The in-line blocking type, the traditional tight end, is called your Y tight end. Then there is the move all around the formation type called the F-role tight role. Coastal Carolina’s Isaiah Likely is clearly an F-role tight end.

Likely was recruited as an athlete coming out of high school. He was the 172nd overall athlete in the 2018 high school class and the 11th best prospect in the state of Massachusetts. As a two-star recruit, Likely didn’t receive offers from the top schools in the country. Instead, he ended up at Coastal Carolina and became a star tight end.

Early in his college career, Likely had an impact on the field for the Chanticleers. Despite only 12 receptions for 106 receiving yards as a freshman, Likely tied for the team lead with five receiving touchdowns. The following year, Likely more than doubled his receptions (32) and receiving yards (431) while again leading the team with five receiving touchdowns.
