Keon Sabb Decommits from Clemson
December 6th, 2021 at 4:10 PM ^
Can't blame him!
December 6th, 2021 at 4:12 PM ^
Come home, brother. All the Jersey boys are ours
December 6th, 2021 at 7:24 PM ^
December 6th, 2021 at 4:19 PM ^
Excited, I am.
December 6th, 2021 at 4:24 PM ^
People who know about football/recruiting more than me: what kind of safety does he project to be? Based on his 247 scouting report, he seems to be more 2015 Jabrill than Dax Hill.
December 6th, 2021 at 4:43 PM ^
I would definitely agree with this. More Peppers than Dax for sure. The secondary is shaping up to be amazing.
December 6th, 2021 at 4:46 PM ^
I actually compare him to Brad Hawkins. Same size out of high school, but Sabb is more polished. Sure tackler who's at his best flying up into the box to make a stop one on one (really underrated skill Hawkins has). I don't see him as a ball-hawking free safety either.
December 6th, 2021 at 5:15 PM ^
He was being recruited at Clemson to a similar position as the Viper. Ala Isaiah Simmons. Some concerns about his speed have put him as a box defender, basically a bigger, faster Brad Hawkins.
Much more similar to Jabrill than Dax but Jabrill probably had more top end athleticism.
December 6th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
Whats the difference you're implying? genuinely curious.

Whats the difference you're implying? genuinely curious.
December 6th, 2021 at 7:06 PM ^
I've heard some people compare him to Jamal Adams
December 6th, 2021 at 7:11 PM ^
He's definitely a Viper in the Peppers or Cato June mold. Large for a safety, multi sport athlete, fast enough, athletic, but more power than speed.
December 6th, 2021 at 8:11 PM ^
omg. god forbid we end up with a guy like peppers.
December 7th, 2021 at 8:18 AM ^
Steve Atwater.
Keon would be a tremendous get for our favorite team-would provide great flexibility to the defense. He is big enough to play LB-would wreak havoc blowing up the run, taking away the TE and blitzing off the edge. Otherwise, he can cover a ton of acreage on the back end of a defense and boy oh boy does he bring the wood!
December 6th, 2021 at 4:25 PM ^
Hopefully he doesn’t follow Venables to OK
December 6th, 2021 at 4:43 PM ^
Well, this does appear to have something to do with Venables leaving, because Keon Sabb recently stated that he was totally committed to Clemson.
December 6th, 2021 at 4:47 PM ^
Clemson’s 247 Insider - Anna Hickey - stated that Michigan is “likely the landing spot.”
December 6th, 2021 at 4:54 PM ^
I always did like that Anna Hickey, whoever she is.
December 6th, 2021 at 5:07 PM ^
don't be coy, andrew. you've had a hickey before....
December 6th, 2021 at 5:55 PM ^
True confession time: back in my high school days I had a crush on a classmate named 'Ann Hickey'.
December 6th, 2021 at 8:41 PM ^
Is she looking for a job? We happen to have one available
December 6th, 2021 at 6:07 PM ^
Anna Hickey is killing it.
December 6th, 2021 at 8:03 PM ^
Anna Hickey rocks!
December 6th, 2021 at 4:26 PM ^
247 stats on him...looks to be a high 4-star, could be 5-star in some other books. Good size...
December 6th, 2021 at 4:32 PM ^
The Clemson 247 staff member said she talked to Sabb and it sounded like he will commit to Michigan.
Edit: yes it was Anna Hickey
December 6th, 2021 at 4:37 PM ^
Anna Hickey? If so, first she is attractive and secondly she is almost always on point with their recruits
im wrong I was being chauvinistic. Downvote away!
December 6th, 2021 at 4:48 PM ^
Uh, in this case, I think the second point is far more important than the first.
December 6th, 2021 at 4:55 PM ^
Im wrong…I was being chauvinistic! Downvote away!!!!
December 6th, 2021 at 6:38 PM ^
I can see the politically correct whiners are out in full downvote mode. Jesus Christ should someone mention an attractive female as a side bar comment and then try to at least own up to a joke about it.
it was not intended as such a slight but I’m wrong here!!!
December 6th, 2021 at 6:43 PM ^
You referred to the reporter by her attractiveness first and her skill second. It's just in poor taste. Be better
December 6th, 2021 at 7:59 PM ^
I can be, can the other people on here provide insight and context or do they just wait aimlessly to downvote away? You been on here long enough to know conversations go to die here because of people trying to hammer people for small change stuff. I’ll do my part!
December 6th, 2021 at 9:26 PM ^
Have you not observed the omnipresent "sideline reporters" who offer worthless, pre-written by others commentary when there is a lull in the game? 98% are attractive females. Does that mean they all got their positions (instead of men) based on their abilities to report on a sport that most have never played and that these 98% were all better qualified than any man or lessor attractive woman who applied for the job? Let's be real, skill can sometimes be 2nd in the sports journalism world. Let's cut Jordan2323 a break.
December 7th, 2021 at 7:40 AM ^
I wrote for the Michigan Daily for a year and the vast majority of the sports reporters didn't play football and the ones who did play didn't play well. It used to be that most everyone in America loved football and sports. The kid that wasn't super-fast, big or strong kept the stats in the pressbox and/or wrote for the school newspaper. The 5'2" Mitch Alboms of the world were pretty good reporters but most likely never played any ball beyond pee wee.
Sure former players are all over TV, but the majority of them wouldn't have made it there on their reporting/writing skills.
There is no reason a woman can't be that dork in the press box, or the next Mitch Albom. Mitch Albom is handsome no one accuses him of getting the job on his looks.
December 6th, 2021 at 7:01 PM ^
Anna may be hot, but she’s no Tom VanHaaren.
December 6th, 2021 at 7:30 PM ^
Maybe don’t make it the very first thing you say about her… you call it “politically correct whiner,” I call it not being a pig and recognizing someone for their profession when that’s the context of their relevance here.
December 6th, 2021 at 8:06 PM ^
Not a pig but I’ll say when I’m wrong. I’m wrong!
December 6th, 2021 at 9:06 PM ^
And yet we are talking about a young man only for his ability to play football.
December 6th, 2021 at 9:56 PM ^
Whining about downvotes = downvote.
December 6th, 2021 at 5:13 PM ^
While Anna appears to be a very attractive young woman and the Sabb news is highly desirable, just going to confess that if Webb and/or Lorenz suddenly declared Goodwin and Conerly coming to Michigan I'd dump Anna like she was the cheapest of one night stands!
December 6th, 2021 at 8:02 PM ^
I’m wrong! Chauvinism at its core! Downvote away!!!
December 6th, 2021 at 4:37 PM ^
The timeline on his 247 profile suggests that Wiltfong thought he'd commit to Michigan a full week and a half beforehand. Seems as though this decommit was foreseen...
December 6th, 2021 at 5:12 PM ^
Cue bad puns.
Take Sabb, Ana Hickey
December 6th, 2021 at 9:04 PM ^
The Today show just did a story this morning about some "hot" secret service agent. The things the women were saying all I thought was "if this was a woman agent these same comments would get people fired." Weird how things work in this world.
December 6th, 2021 at 4:38 PM ^
I drove a Sabb once. Nice vehicle.
December 6th, 2021 at 8:05 PM ^
If it hadn't been a "(n)ice vehicle", then you might've been telling us a Sabb story, so we'd express our sympathies.
December 6th, 2021 at 6:51 PM ^
This sums it up right here. It's happening! And by happening, I mean the shit we have been talking about happening for the last decade, if and only if we could beat OSU, win the B1G and make the CFP. Fuck yes!
