I also live in LaGrange and my little brother played OL for LaGrange High. He was a senior when Copeland was a sophomore and contained Copeland the entire game. Not sure if that means much, because I really do think Copeland will be good. But yeah, there are a ton of LHS and Troup players that go to the next level next level....Trey Blackmon (Auburn), Sam Olujubutu (Arky), Blake Mitchell (S Carolina), Bruce Thornton (UGA and NFL), Walt Harris (49ers), Braxton Kelley (Kentucky) Wesley Woodyard (Kentucky), Skyler Thornton (played at Florida), Dexter Murphy (three year starter at Auburn) Demetri Merritt (Kentucky) Qua Huzzie (Kentucky) Demoro Ford (Kentucky) and a whole slew of others who's names escape me at this point. LaGrange High has a few in the NFL right now and in the past as well. Then there's former granger baseball player Mike Cameron in the MLB. This area really does produce serious talent. Most of them being from LaGrange High School of course.

Trey Blackmon was ruthless. Kid could lay a hit

From all the Tennessee plates, decals etc I see on the streets of LaGrange we could start our one club here...Maybe I will do that in my spare time.

I was down there yesterday. I took my family to the Safari. I did see a little orange there.

Sounds like UGA is back to their old tricks again of stealing our recruits. Remember what they did in the late 90's?

Copeland has always been a fourth star on Rivals. He's a 3 star on Scout though. I would like to get more info on him though since it seems like he's the forgotten man of our class so far. Any news?

I decided to go back and watch his video again, this guy is so quick and his pursuit to the ball is unreal. Haven't heard his name circulate, maybe he's back home working on his game and grades, etc.

Not really any news on him. Sounds like he is solid to the Vols. The only team that would have a chance of stealing him away is UGA and they've said he's too small and haven't ever recruited him. Besides that, their class is almost full and they've already got 3 DE's committed...

His season starts this week, but he scrimmaged last week...

“J.C. had a really big scrimmage last week, his performance was unbelievable,” Jeter explained. “He had 11 tackles for losses including several sacks. He was definitely on top of his game. He even had a sack for a safety.”

Jeter is his coach, he also says he's very solid on his commitment.

"I was happy about that," Copeland stated when asked for his thoughts on the recent commitments from both Willis and Miller. "I love it..We are going to have a lot of success as a group. It's just a bunch of good guys that will push each other to get better and be a great unit."
At this point a year ago, Copeland weighed 230 pounds, but 365 days certainly does make a difference. Copeland stands 6-foot-2 and weighs 263 pounds thanks for a new way of eating.
"It's been the weight room and eating right," Copeland said. "I've been on a eating schedule that consists of fish, peanut butter and jelly, potatoes, vegetables and fruit."
Copeland plans on attending a Vols game for the first time in November.

Copeland is turning into a big boy. He had 7 tackles last night facing double and triple teams all night.

all via Rivals.

Not sure when this picture was taken, but this fella is built like a brick sh*t-house. DT all the way after a little time in a collegiate strength program, IMO.

Body-wise, he reminds me of a young James Harrison (OLB Steelers).

“I’m still committed to Tennessee but I’m weighing my options out right now. I have a lot of options and am looking around,” said Copeland.
