According to On3's Hayes Fawcett, Alabama Crimson Tide transfer defensive lineman Keon Keeley has announced a commitment to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

Keeley, who has spent the last three seasons in Tuscaloosa, will have two years of eligibility remaining.

A member of Alabama's 2023 recruiting class, Keeley saw action in the final two of his three seasons at Alabama, a span where he racked up a combined 19 tackles, three TFL, three sacks, and one pass defense. The former five-star recruit, per 247Sports, posted a majority of those stats during the 2025 season as a redshirt sophomore, totaling 16 tackles, three TFL, and three sacks during a breakout campaign.

Keeley now heads to Notre Dame for his redshirt junior season in 2026, the same program which he was committed to originally out of high school before signing with Alabama.
