“Keys relationship with
Kelsey Pope was an integral piece in the decision to flip. Pope and Keys have been constantly talking for two years and did so even though he was committed to LSU.
“Coach Kelsey is my guy,” Keys said. “I met him early in my recruitment and he is my dog. He was that way before I committed. He would hit me up and we talked on the phone. We get along and relate to each other. You have that person you can relate too and then he can coach you on the field so you know both sides to him.”
