WR Travares Copeland leaves program

West Virginia freshman wide receiver Travares Copeland has left the team for personal reasons according to a release by the University.

Copeland, whose redshirt was burned just three games ago, has had 10 catches for 55 yards in the last three games for the Mountaineers. He replaced Stedman Bailey in the second half at Texas Tech and started against Kansas State.
