Florida added a dangerous weapon to its offense Wednesday in four-star wide receiver Jacob Copeland.
The 6-foot, 192-pounder is ranked the fifth-best receiver in the class of 2018 and the country's 40th overall prospect in the country on the ESPN 300.
Copeland was among the most sought-after receivers in his class, boasting an explosive first step and an ability to beat defenders in traffic. The Florida native held offers from a number of top programs, including Tennessee, Texas A&M, Alabama, and Florida State, before opting to sign with Gators.
