Keon Sabb path to Michigan, outlook for 2022
Photo by Jaime Crawford/Getty ImagesKeon Sabb was highly rated four-star recruit out of high school, the third-highest in Michigan’s 2022 freshmen class and the ninth ranked safety in the country, per 247Sports. Being highly rated comes with the burden of expectation, but Sabb appears to be up to the challenge.
As a 6-foot-2, 200-pound three-sport athlete in high school, Sabb excelled anywhere his feet were, but on the football field is where he found a future. Defensively, he was positionless in the secondary, rotating between coverage and box responsibilities and attacking ball carriers with a “let the paramedics sort them out” mentality.
