Senior and Myrtle Beach High alumnus Tyler Keane started for Coastal Carolina on Saturday night and led the program to its first victory over a Football Bowl Subdivision opponent in eight tries with its 38-28 win over Massachusetts.
But interim head coach Jamey Chadwell made it clear following the game that the quarterback position is still an open competition.
“I’ve said from the get go, we’re going to do what we have to do to win this first game, then we have an open date,” Chadwell said. “Until we get to our conference, we’re still going to work with an open competition and try to find who or whom gives us the best chance to win the football game.
