About Keenan

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

A dual threat QB who can throw accurate passes from short, medium, and long throws. Scrambler, can get away from the pocket and still make accurate throws downfield or scramble. Not afraid of contact, plays middle linebacker so knows how to take hits and give them.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I play with a clear head no matter what. Keep head up even when plays don’t go my way. Kinda shy in public but in football aggressive and coach able.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I learned how to help people learn plays through my years of being a varsity starter I’ve seen all different types of athletes and know how to help them so they can help me.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I’ve faced a dislocated left shoulder, some knee problems but doctors have helped me fix it and helped improve my game. With my physical therapist helping me throughout my sports career.

What type of college are you looking for?

Any college that actually wants me and treats me like family.

While listed primarily as a DB prospect, Keenan Pals Keenan Pals Keenan Pals 5'10" | 170 lbs | DB East Buchanan | 2027 IA , who solidified the starting QB job in 2025 after splitting reps last season took big steps forward under Center that may boost his value as a two-way starter. Pals threw for 1514 yards, 14 TDs, and 8 INTs while leading the offense with 554 rushing yards and 9 TDs. Pals flashes more athleticism that distinguishes himself among the other QBs on this list as a dual-threat, weaving his way through gaps and outside the pocket while showing good agility and dangerous breakaway speed as a runner. His passing mechanics shouldn’t be ignored, with a strong release, accuracy on the run, and an impressive level of power on his deep throws, Pals showcased the potential to double as a promising QB prospect that with the right fit could find himself starting under Center at the next level one day.
