The Houston, Texas product arrives in Bloomington with two years of eligibility remaining.
Out of high school Kopp chose Northwestern over Michigan, Vanderbilt, Georgetown, Texas A&M and Butler. A four-star recruit, he was the No. 66 recruit in the nation according to Scout and No. 113 by 247Sports out of Houston Christian High School.
With the addition of Kopp, Indiana has now filled its allotment of 13 scholarship players for the 2021-22 season, although the transfer portal remains open at all times for players to come and go.
