The NCAA has granted wide receiver Damian Copeland a 6th year of eligibility due to a medical hardship waiver. Copeland struggled with injuries early on in his career at UofL before finally putting together a full season in 2012. He has had a fractured foot, a torn meniscus, and a hamstring injury. He played only 1 game before having to sit out the rest of the 2011 season.

On Saturday night, Copeland tweeted the following:

For Everybody Asking, Yes I Have One More Yr Of Eligibility. My Decision Will Be Made At The End Of The Yr! #GoCards

So as you can see, this doesn’t guarantee that we will see Copeland back with the Cards next season. He can obviously opt to try his luck at the next level. He will likely make his decision after the bowl game. If he decides to leave, we wish him the best, and the Cards will still be fine at wide receiver. But if he chooses to come back, that would be a great veteran piece to keep in place as we head into the ACC. We could always use a little more Honey Mustard!
