Dolphins' Hazel Competing for More Reps

Steve Mitchell

Miami Dolphins WR Matt Hazel will have his hands full when it comes to competing for playing time on the team's deepest unit.

Located in South Carolina just eight miles West of Myrtle Beach, in a town called Conway, Coastal Carolina or CCU, became a university in 1993. It has since produced 9 NFL players.

Probably the most famous CCU alumnus in the NFL is Josh Norman, the shut-down corner previously with the Carolina Panthers and now the new $75 million dollar man for the Washington Redskins. Other notable CCU alumni are receiver Jerome Simpson (49ers) and running back Lorenzo Taliaferro (Ravens).
