Class: 2023
Position: Defensive line, offensive line
Size: 6-5, 370 pounds

Offensive and defensive line coach Tim Finley:
“He is a good kid from a great family. He is a 6-5, 370-pound defensive tackle and offensive lineman. He is extremely athletic for his size. He can be a great athlete, but he still has a lot of growing up to do. He is lacking in fundamentals but has immense potential. He doesn't like to lose, but when he figures it out he excels. Keaton is the type of kid who would do anything to win.”
