If Saturday’s showdown between No. 11 Florida and No. 1 Alabama is half as dramatic as the battle to land Jacob Copeland was, the 90,000 fans who pile into the Swamp will be in for a treat.
By now, you’ve probably heard Copeland’s story several times, and you obviously know how it ended since he plays for the Gators.
For those who need a refresher, Copeland was a top-100 receiver out of Escambia High School in Pensacola in the Class of 2018. He committed to UF over Alabama and others days prior to the start of his senior year.
