Via his private Instagram account, Arizona defensive end commit, Josh JJ Allen, announced that he will not be playing for Long Beach City College this season. Because of this, he will now have three years of eligibility upon his arrival at Arizona.
He will join Arizona in the spring, giving him an advantage to learn the playbook, keep up with the conditioning, and understand Rich Rodriguez' system.
After his announcement, I was able to speak with him. He said that he had talked to Coach Rodriguez about the idea, but it was all up to his coaches at Long Beach City College to allow him to sit out this season.
