Alabama JUCO 6-foot-4 DB target set to announce commitment decision

Alius Mayo is set to announce his commitment decision on Sunday around 3 p.m. CST.

Mayo is expected to choose between offers from Alabama, Arizona State, Cal, Louisville and others. He attends Modesto Junior College in California, and he is considered to be one of the top junior college prospects in the country.

Alabama offered Mayo in June and quickly turned his unofficial visit to an official visit. He left the visit with respect for how the Tide plans to develop the cornerback position.

“My biggest takeaway was that Alabama has a blueprint for getting cornerbacks to the league,” Mayo told Touchdown Alabama after the visit.

Mayo looks as if he could be a perfect fit in Tuscaloosa if he were to choose the Tide. The 6-foot-4 defensive back is a long and athletic cornerback who possesses a large cover radius with his long arms. That physical trait allows him to consistently play through the hands of pass catchers as a defender. His highlights are filled with plenty of pass breakups. He also possesses the ability to make tackles in space, which is something the Tide prioritizes on all levels of its defense, especially in the secondary.
