Alabama football’s 2023 commits are continuing to recruit Keon Keeley ahead of his official visit to UA.

Keeley attends Berkeley Prep in Tampa, Florida, and he garners a five-star rating from multiple recruiting sites. He plans to officially visit Alabama next weekend when the Tide take on the Texas A&M Aggies.

A pair of Alabama five-star commits in Caleb Downs and Richard Young tweeted at Keeley Tuesday.

Alabama’s four-star offensive lineman commit, Ryqueze McElderry, told Touchdown Alabama Thursday Keeley is a must-get for the Tide.

“We have been loading up over the last couple of months, and I want to keep it on,” McElderry said. “We still have to get the defensive end who de-committed from Notre Dame (Keeley).”

Justice Haynes, Alabama’s five-star running back commit, has also been vocal about his desire to get Keeley on board. Haynes describes the five-star as a dominant edge rusher who can do it all.

“He can do it all as a defensive end,” said Haynes. “He can come off the edge, he can power rush, he can bull rush you, he can hit you with a quick finesse move and he can stop the run. He is just a dominant specimen.”

Touchdown Alabama watched Keeley in action earlier this season, and we witnessed first-hand what makes him special.
