LSU commit Kolaj Cobbins headed to All-American Bowl

2024 Destrehan (La.) linebacker Kolaj Cobbins was hoping to get a chance to showcase his talent on a big stage. Now, the LSU commit will get that opportunity. On Wednesday, he was announced as an All-American Bowl participant.
The 2024 All-American Bowl on January 6, 2024, from inside the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, will be presented live on NBC and Peacock.
In January, the 6-2.5, 205-pound prospect will be in Baton Rouge to enroll early. Before that, he’ll compete among the nation’s best in the showcase. It’s just the latest opportunity for him to shine.
Destrehan head coach Marcus Scott was all smiles for one of his program’s leaders when he committed to LSU. Cobbins’ senior season ended one game short of another state championship game appearance as Destrehan fell to Zachary last week.

“As a coach, we want them first and foremost to be productive citizens and leaders,” Scott said. “Kolaj is not only an outstanding athlete, but he is a first-class human being with high character.
“He is the total package when you look at what he can do athletically and in the classroom. He’s in the Beta Club, he’s on Honor Roll, he does all kinds of stuff on campus, and he was the only underclassmen voted as a team captain this past season.”
According to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, Cobbins ranks as the No. 257 overall prospect in the country, No. 22 linebacker in the nation and No. 9 prospect in Louisiana.
