Hopper reportedly enters transfer portal

UF linebacker Ty’Ron Hopper has entered the transfer portal, according to several reports.

Should he end up leaving the program, it would be a potentially big loss. He finished the 2021 season strong and was in line to start full time in 2022.

He played in all 13 games in 2021 and started four of them. He finished fourth on the team with 65 tackles, third with 10 tackles-for-loss and third with 3 1/2 sacks. He also broke up a couple of passes and forced a fumble.

He turned in the best game of his career against Missouri, racking up 13 tackles, including four behind the line of scrimmage, in a little more than one half before being ejected from the game for throwing what the referees deemed to be a punch.
