'23 FL DE Keon Keeley (Prodigal Son)

[Luckylucci]

Can we get him in the ‘22 class?

Feels like yesterday I was watching highlights of Nelson Agholor wearing that uniform, thinking he was the closest thing I'd seen to Tim Brown since Tim Brown.

Loving what Elston is doing, great get.

Wow. I am giving him his 5th star. I really wish he could come in for next season.

 

[Cackalacky2.0]

What’s his competition level?

 

[Reaper97]

Things not looking good with him…
Multiple Florida sites predicting the flip.
He visited UF for the Bama game and loved it. Figures, the one time Bama doesn’t blow a team out…
His quote to one site was,
“Notre Dame’s my decision at the moment, but I grew up a Florida fan.”

Not good.

Which UF sites are predicting a flip? I don't see those.

FWIW, Loy posted that he checked with Keeley and the response was something along the lines of "just going to a college football game with my friends."

Who is predicting him? I read the Rivals and 247 articles and neither did.

Wouldn't be the first guy to lie to Loy who just seems incredibly naive to me

What is Loy supposed to do? Put his feet to the fire lol?

 

[Luckylucci]

He's probably seen too much of Vyper/WDE's playing LB.

The mods on the Florida Rivals’ site are telling their subscribers that they are hearing that he wants to go to UF, and that’s why his HS coach didn’t want him to commit to ND so early. They think he signs with UF.
Edit: Need to check to see if it was Rivals or another UF site saying that.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

I have no clue how to embed a tweet , but Keons mom just responded to Loys tweet about being worried with a solid "no". Moms involved, we are good

 

[SoIll]

I think we're going to battling kids to stay in fold all year long.

 

[IRISHMAN]

I agree. once NDs 2021 season begins to crumble I think NDs 2022 & 2023 classes will begin to fall apart, it'll be 2016 all over again.

So, just Rivals, or "multiple Florida sites...."

Rivals message boards are team specific so did you subscribe to UF Rivals? Seems like an important update to not be sure where you got it

As if its a given smh...

 

[BeauBenken]

Fact of the matter is everyone is going to come after Keon because he looks like a bonafide 5 star, but from everything I've heard, he's definitely a ND type of kid. I don't think there is reason to doubt his intentions just yet.

You know how upsetting it is when you use common sense and logic. Please stop!

I'm going to second this. Let's get a link, even if it's premium, with where this info is coming from.

If info is behind a paywall. We can share the link, give attribution to the writer, and then a brief paraphrase what's written.

 

[IrishRazor82]

Best way to look at any 5 star kid ND has committed early in the season - at best we're in the top 2 and have reason to believe we lead.

Commitment from a 5 star this early means very little, hope we keep him on a coin flip.

 

[Luckylucci]

Here is the UF Rivals site article.

GatorsTerritory - Could 2023 Notre Dame commit flip to the lifelong favorite Gators? (rivals.com)

 

[GUknights75]

I would be a little surprised if it happened. He seems to really like ND and he hops on the IB and B&G podcasts and leaves comments every now and then. I really hope we keep him because he might end up the #1 player in the class at this rate.

 

[EvilleIrish]

I think his mom responded to Loy on Twitter that ND didn’t need to worry.

Hmmm - Do tweets not imbed the same as before?

Just grab the url to the tweet you want, not the embed code, and wrap the twitter tags around it. You can get it from your browser or using the copy link option from the share button of the tweet.
