Allen is a four-star defensive end, who measures in at 6-4, 260 pounds. According to 247, Allen is the 2nd-best strongside defensive end, and the 11th-best JuCo player overall in the 2016 class.
This may also just be the first of the LBCC players to commit to Arizona. London Iakopo is another likely target that will end up in Tucson with Allen.
