'23 FL DE Keon Keeley (Prodigal Son)

[notredomer23]

I can't take any Moore of this...

Fine, it only ends with Keeley transferring to AFC Richmond

 

[NorthDakota]

Keeley going to Newcastle for an undisclosed amount.

Feelin' fuckin' lucky like the fuckin' Irish
I see the whole game from my third Iris
I tour the whole word like a dirty pirate
To give the whole club some Miley Cyrus

You keep recruiting till the ink is on the paper. The more five star elite athletes ND recruits, the more these things are going to come up. They’re going to take visits even after committing… and they’re going to be recruited till the end… and sometimes beyond that. Just part of the game especially when you are trying to move from 8-10 in recruiting up to the elite level top 4-5.

TTT to us rn

At the end of the day he has visited Bama at least twice if he wasn't feeling ND wouldn't you think he would have decommited by now?

No

He's here, he's there, he's every-fuckin-where..

The fact that he hasn’t decommitted - and it’s been, what, 10 days post-Bama-visit? - is a modestly good sign. Though I suppose some would say he’s trying to maximize his NIL, and so drawing things out benefits him.

 

[IrishLax]

Both him and Bowen could flip at any time, but there is very little incentive to. The prudent decision is just to sit tight until they're ready to make a move. They have not gone "silent" on other ND players or coaches yet. So regardless of what they do -- short of going full Dante and signing a literal contract with their intended school -- expect it to go the distance. It seems like both are simply looking for their subjectively "best" fit.

Dick Corbett needs to start buying defensive ends and less head coaches

He wants to go to the ND vs Ohio State game. I dare to guess he’s waiting to see how ND and Ohio State do on opening weekend. A disappointing loss will be followed by a decommit I think. A win and he’ll be bandwagoning into signing day. Ohio State is after him hard too.

Highly doubt this is about on-field results...

Apologies if already posted, I just ran across the link below, dissect as you will. Couple things I’d like to point out as others have already stated, he seems to be an ND kid, he’s been committed for over a year, and he obviously likes the attention. Just gotta stand our ground and not let this one slip away. It’s balls to the wall time, with the upcoming season, and closing on this class. I believe he’s still ours to lose.

Keon Keeley, 5-star DE and Alabama target, leaves wiggle room discussing Notre Dame pledge

The battle is heating up for Berkeley Prep (Florida) edge-rusher Keon Keeley, the nation's No. 3 overall prospect in the newly-released SI99. And for good

Mom replied back to someone’s tweet about him being unconfirmed visiting for that game and she said Keeley OV so there’s that.

So then he's gone. Oh well, onto the next targets.

 

[ThePiombino]

I hate NIL. Not because of the kids, can't blame them. But for the schools misappropriating it and the handlers for taking advantage.

Some ND fans called her out on it and she deleted the tweet lol

 

[ThePiombino]

We say it all the time, yet when the rubber meets the road we seem to forget:

LOOK AT WHAT THEY DO, NOT WHAT THEY SAY.

Committed kids don't do what Keeley's doing. Doesn't mean we can't land him still. As long as we have Freeman in our corner, we have a chip and a chair. That said, the Keeley auction is very much open.

She is entering the deserves getting blow back category. Not her first post stirring the pot. Whether they are full committed and behaving or full shop around money whoring her tweets don’t help either desired outcome.

Personally, tweeting at a recruits mom isn’t a good look. Regardless of the tweet.

F.U.N.D him ND. We can sit on the sidelines and watch 5* go to other schools or we can allocate 2-3 mil a year to sign 2-4 five stars each class. It's a smart investment. Cost of business.

 

[du Lac]

IF he’s OV he’s done. ND can’t break principles for 1 kid. It’s disrespect to the university and program to not decommit and pretend you’re outside the rules that all others now and before you were/are under. Sorry, I’d love nothing more than to have KK, but principles, rules, standards matter. This is NDs policy, no? It sounds like they’re daring ND to break ties or break rules just for me. At worst, a gutless way not to have to break your commitment.

 

[INLaw]

Who knows what the staff considers him because they can’t publicly comment. A few weeks back when they offered two other vipers within a week before Keeleys last booty call to Alabama is probably the answer

Other than that just a week ago he was on video confirming his commitment to ND. IF you have an OV planned and state publicly that you’re committed, you’re intentionally and publicly violating the rules of the program.

Program brings in close to 60 mil a year and the program value is close to a billion dollars. NCAA football is among other things a farm system of the NFL. It's not breaking rules or breaking principles, it's Free Market Capitalism and it's what it takes compete. I don't understand how American football fans cling to the amateur NCAA model and don't want to pay accordingly. A moral soap box is just an excuse to simply not compete. God,. Country, Notre Dame. Country is supporting free market capitalism, not holding onto to an outdated model of yesteryear.

Then drop the rule. I am not anti capitalism in this setting of athletics, but I also think if you make a rule you follow it. Drop the rule or don't drop the rule.

Mom seems to have the maturity and restraint on Twitter of a middle schooler.

I seriously can't believe how some of these grown ass adults use social media. I have second hand embarrassment for them
