This is an important commitment for BYU as Epps helps the Cougars round out a need at wide receiver. With three talented quarterbacks in Zach Wilson, Jaren Hall, and Baylor Romney, BYU has quarterback play that attracted Epps. Epps took an official visit to BYU this past weekend putting the Cougars on top.
