Four-star wide receiver Jacob Copeland made one of the biggest decisions of his life Wednesday when he announced his commitment to Florida, but not everyone with him was initially supportive.
Moments after he committed to the Gators, Copeland's mother - who'd donned an Alabama sweatshirt and Tennessee hat for the occasion - rose from the table and stormed out of the gym, cutting in front of the camera as she passed.
She later returned to give her visibly emotional son a hug.
