The Vols are recruiting Cohen as a potential offensive tackle, he said.
Cohen said he and teammate Joshua Jones, who also landed an offer from Tennessee during the visit, met with Vols offensive line coach
Will Friend and quality control analyst
Cameron Clemmons. Cohen said they “learned the schemes and plays” while talking with Friend and Clemmons.
“The atmosphere” at Tennessee, Cohen said, and “the feeling you get when you get there” impressed him most during his first look at the Vols.
“Everyone treats you like they’ve known you their whole life,” he said. “That stands out.”
But he admitted his offer from Alabama, the team he grew up liking, has made the Crimson Tide the team to beat for him.
“I see ‘Bama as my leader,” Cohen said. “I was definitely a ‘Bama fan at heart growing up despite quick stints with other teams. It will definitely be tough to pass on ‘Bama.”
Cohen said he’s scheduled to visit Clemson on Monday, and he plans “on seeing Tennessee again,” although he hasn’t set an “official date” at this point.
He said he currently expects to announce his college decision near the beginning of his senior season “or possibly this summer.”
