Does anyone know how many years of eligibility are left for each of the three Juco linemen we have committed?

Wiltfong just CB'd him to LSU so maybe him being there yesterday wasn't a good thing.

Auburn offensive tackle commit Javion Cohen returned to Tuscaloosa on Saturday for the Crimson Tide’s meeting with LSU. UA came away with its first defeat of the season, but the Phenix City (Ala.) Central standout enjoyed his time.

“I thought it was a good atmosphere, good environment,” Cohen told BamaOnLine. “It was a hard fought game. LSU took advantage of a lot of opportunities that Bama didn’t. They executed when it mattered and came out with a win in a hard fought game.”

The four-star tackle arrived in Tuscaloosa on Saturday morning and met with the staff.

“As soon as I stepped foot down there they immediately told me I needed to go straight to Coach (Nick) Saban and talk with him. Me, him, and my dad sat down and talked for some time, you know, I really enjoyed speaking with him. I talked to (Kyle) Flood, (Andy) Kwon, (Charles) Kelly, and (Sal) Sunseri a lot. I enjoyed it a lot. We talked a lot about myself, Bama, and how our futures compare together.”

The message from Saban was pretty clear-cut, according to Cohen.

“Basically told me the same thing he always tells me when I come into his office — I’ve got a full scholarship to play for him and he’s going to honor my scholarship,” Cohen said. “He’ll take me whenever. Just to commit when I’m ready.”

Cohen remains committed to the Tigers, a decision he made back in June. Alabama, he says, is the only other school he’s considering at this point in the process.

“It is what it is,” Cohen said of his Tigers pledge. “I’ve got like a month to think it all out. I am interested in both.”

Cohen plans to return to Tuscaloosa for the Western Carolina game in two weeks before taking an official visit to Alabama in December. He will sign early.

“The whole way they go about stuff,” he said of what has UA in the mix. “Bama is known for having a championship program and atmosphere. Coach Saban does what he does. They put plenty of offensive linemen into the league. I think it’s the most over the last 10 years. The development system is great. Coach (Scott) Cochran is a great strength and conditioning coach and the whole training staff is wonderful. The city of Tuscaloosa is great. There’s a lot of factors I can pull as to why I’m interested in them.”

At 6-foot-5, 295 pounds, Cohen is rated the No. 26 offensive tackle and the No. 330 overall player in the country, per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite rankings.
