ND is gonna keep him and Bowen you heard it here first.
Keeley remains committed to Notre Dame, but Marcus Freeman and his staff have their work cut out to keep him. Talents like Keeley draw attention until they sign their national letters of intent, and now an Alabama commit is calling his shot in getting Keeley to flip.
Richard Young, one of the nation’s top running backs who committed to the Tide late last week, already tweeted at Keeley about Alabama once. Now he’s at it again, this time making a grand prediction.
Mark my words I am gonna flip @keon_keeley from Notre Dame ….

I don’t know what Keeley is going to ultimately end up doing and having once been about to enter my senior year of high school, I’m guessing Keeley himself doesn’t even know. With Notre Dame still being where he is verbally committed I would presume they’re still the leader, but Alabama clearly will not be going away.

The #1 running back in this class (AL commit) stated: "Mark my words I am gonna flip
@keon_keeley from Notre Dame."
Some recruiting site noted:
"I know he has said all the right things about Marcus Freeman and the Irish, but just talking to multiple contacts, college contacts, people in the Tampa area,
it sounds like Alabama made a big impression over the weekend."
And I just happened to read Nick Saba's recruiting blueprint, linked below.
After reading, it confirms Brian Kelly wasn't even in the same ballpark as Saban with respect to effort and method re; recruiting.
From the article:
The top recruit visiting that weekend was always assigned to Saban, who lavished one-on-one attention that was almost always successful.
“If he was laser-focused on getting a kid, nine times out of ten, we’re getting him,” says Alles.
