Razorback pitcher Kevin Kopps isn’t the type to go into theatrics.
Unlike some other major college pitchers, you won’t catch him on the mound constantly fidgeting and initiating all manner of gesticulations, twerking and pseudo babble.
From the outside, Kevin Kopps mostly appears as steady as they come. A textbook example of the kind of even-keeled nature and self-discipline that can, when it all comes together, produce the greatest season in Arkansas baseball history.
That point was further driven home on Thursday when it was announced that Kopps is one of three finalists for the annual Golden Spikes Award, college baseball’s equivalent to the Heisman Trophy.
