As long as DeBoer is able to take his offensive vision and adopt Saban's "Process" in terms of his CEO mentality and having everyone in the organization "do their job", he'll be successful at Bama.
I played for Rhett and I will say he is a QB whisperer so the fact that him and D'eriq were able to get this commitment in the fist place shows that SMU is on the rise. With that being said Keelon is a WINNER and wont skip a beat going from Juggernaut to Juggernaut, Duncanville to Bama. 70% completion rating and 29-1 in 6A Texas is SEC Prep
Back to back TX 6A champs. Kid is also balling his ass off in one of the very top highschool divisions in the country. It's crazy how many P4/D1 players come out of there every year.
@@brianroyster7510 you know ball sir. Crazy to see people doubt him because of an initial hometown commitment. Still a 4 star and once he hits the SEC weight program hard may develop into a pocket first Jayden Daniels x Jalen Milroe mix
Agreed. If you can play big school Texas ball at a high level then you can make the transition. 2nd, SMU will back amoung the upper programs sooner than later. I could never figure out why SMU wasn't an OU, Ohio St or Bama. I think politics held them back at times.
I mean, the jury is still out🫤 please don’t tell me you’re getting excited because a player flip from SMU ? lol Bama is burning I guess y’all desperate
@@ginobling1828 They’re ranked 7th in the country in June. I’m used to Saban’s classes being ranked in the 20s-30s in June. He’s recruiting his ass off. Doesn’t take a genius to see it. By the way, the QB is a top 10 recruit at the position. He’s the #1 QB according to ESPN. It’s not like the kid is some scrub 😂.
@@hudsonstovall8119 I’m used to Saban being #1 Any month of the year. I’m not sure which Nick you are referring to 🫤 Never seen Alabama ranked lower than #5 kinda of speak for everybody on that.
The best were the barners calling DeBoer “Husky Harsin” after he was named our HC, comparing him to their terrible hire from Boise State just because he’s a west coast guy. It’s so satisfying to see him pick up right where Saban left off while they remain in mediocrity
ESPN and 247 has Keelon ranked 7th qb in the nation. He def top 3 from what I see. That release and accuracy is unique. Had to play baseball or something
Stars are starting to have less meaning. There’s no difference between him and how good he is vs the 5 star qbs in the class. This dude can really ball
From the highlights I’ve seen he looks legit. Also SMU is now in the ACC and have wealthy alumni/donors from Dallas bankrolling their NIL. They aren’t the same SMU from ~10 years ago
@@hudsonstovall8119 he's number 1 on ESPN. The 3 others have him at like 6-9. Not even close to being the best player in Texas either. I didn't say he's garbage but BAMA can do better
Don’t be surprised if now all of the recruiting outlets upgrade Keelin Russell to a 5 star status 😂😂😂 anything to keep Alabama looking great on the recruiting front 😂
Until Alabama drops 3 + games . They should sign Patrick mahonés it doesn’t mean shit , some one will offer him more more and there isn’t a god damn thing they can do about . Why saban quit like a little bitch he didn’t want to compete on an even field .
Y’all gonna realize Bama got a real one in DeBoer 🐘
Nah, There will only ever be one Nick Saban. Thinking you got two Nick Sabans back to back is asinine and statistically improbable.
As long as DeBoer is able to take his offensive vision and adopt Saban's "Process" in terms of his CEO mentality and having everyone in the organization "do their job", he'll be successful at Bama.

You guys have Bama ranked low in recruiting rankings if you have them at 6. I could be wrong but I'm predicting a #1 class THIS YEAR! RTR
The question is, who else was trying to flip him. Now that tell you how good he is. Js 🤔
Uh Oregon & Florida were… dude played 6A football in Texas and THAT should tell you
True
Well texas looks like Saban aint the only one skinning you up lmao HORNS 👇👇

I was told Deboer couldn’t recruit??? 🤔🤔🤔
No. People just didn’t know if he could or not coming from Washington. Hard to recruit on the west coast

He reminds me of Jayden Daniels of LSU last year

Smu or Alabama that don't take much effort just throw the bag
rellllllllll demmmmmm tideeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Where is the kid's 5th ⭐️?????
Debo will cook 👨🍳
My jd been doing nothing but putting ????? Marks everywhere on Alabama and the new coaching staff and what we will be able to do.
He’ll be in the transfer portal in 2yrs 🤷🏾♂️
Go watch his tape people, the dude is a dude regardless of where he initially committed to
Roll tide from lake placid fl
He may have to redshirt or sit his freshman year though. If Ty SImpson comes back next year, I think the offense if his
Simpson will come back. Then after that I believe it’ll be Lonergan unless Russell balls out cause Lonergan is a stud.
@@joshuahaney3400yeah after ty it's gonna be mack
@@thatguynate2581 Lonergan is better than Mack.
@@joshuahaney3400 for right now
If Ty was going to transfer it would have happened after Spring practice.
Looks like he wants to try the Mac Jones method.
Pump your brakes. We stole a QB from SMU
Look up his recruiting metrics. He’s ranked #1 on ESPN & Top 10 on every other website.
A sad day at SMU, I PROMISE. Walk a mile in someone's shoes. Pay them dues
#1 ranked QB from Texas. Duncanville play top comp too. Actually do ya research instead of downplaying him
