Alabama junior outside linebacker, Dallas Turner is impressed with the raw abilities of Keon Keeley and Yhonzae Pierre.
Keeley and Pierre are both former five-star recruits, who enrolled at the University of Alabama during the summer. The duo is getting their first reps at practice with the Crimson Tide during fall camp, and Turner can see why Alabama is excited to have both of them on their squad.
“I have seen a lot of improvement, lot of physical traits they both possess,” Turner said. “It’s progression I see every day, whether it is the little things, visual to team periods and knowing what they supposed to know on the defense. It is a lot of progression every single day with both of them. I love to see it.”

The junior went on to give more detail thoughts about the pair brings to the table.
“It’s natural physical, the explosive part,” Turner added. “They’re both very special physical specimens, how they move, how much impact they put on a blocker. It’s something good to see every day because they’re so young, but they have so much potential and don’t even know it. It’s just them having to day-to-day grind, stack days and everything is going to turn out good for them.”
Alabama’s outside linebacker room is loaded with young untapped potential. Keeley and Pierre both bring a lot to be excited about to this group.
