The hiring of Rob Likens as the new wide receivers coach for the Miami Hurricanes fits well with new offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee and the up-tempo spread offense they will run this fall. Likens has experience in the spread as an offensive coordinator and WR coach. Likens spoke to Miami beat reporters earlier this week.
Likens is tasked with getting more out of the Miami Hurricanes WRs than they have produced during the last two seasons. Rising senior Mike Harley is the only WR returning for Miami in 2020 had more than 20 receptions in 2019.
