Copenhaver Says
“The new coaches are amazing. They were very welcoming and loved having us. Coach Brown was amazing and I love talking to him.”
Mack Brown Says
“He had a shoulder operation in the summer, so he only played half the year, but he was the regional player of the year. We feel like he’s perfect for this offense because he can run in space. He’s got a lot of height… really got good speed and, at that length, he’s got to get stronger so he can block inside… we also feel like he can be an impact player down along the goal line.”
Deana Says
“Copenhaver will provide an athletic tight end for Coach Longo to use. With Coach Lilly’s experience, I expect John to have a great year for the Tar Heels.”
