2-star 2015 K Jon Coppens says he will play at Texas

The Longhorns added a late and unexpected member to the 2015 class.

The winding recruitment of Fort Worth Nolan Catholic kicker Jon Coppens apparently came to an end on Tuesday evening when he announced that he will be playing football for the Texas Longhorns:

Done with the process. I am enrolling in the McCombs School of Business and will be playing Football at the University of Texas! #Hookem

A consensus two-star prospect ranked as the No. 16 kicker nationally, Coppens originally planned to walk on at Wyoming, committing to the Cowboys last December.
