The former Wolverine safety shares what helped him decide to go to Alabama.
Former Michigan safety Keon Sabb entered the transfer portal back on Feb. 16. Four days later he not only committed to Alabama, but was already enrolled. It was a major blow to the Wolverines' defense. Sabb, a sophomore, played meaningful snaps for Michigan in 2023 and was a major contributor to what the Wolverines did in the secondary.
Sabb is fourth on Alabama with 25 tackles and leads the defense with two interceptions. He said he really leaned on his dad when trying to make the decision to leave the Wolverines. Sabb wouldn't trade a thing in the end. "Just having that trust on the lineage of this school , just trusting the process. Trusting Coach Deboer and everything like that. So think it was a smart move, I'm glad I made it for sure."Ironically, Michigan beat Alabama in the Rose Bowl last season to get to the National Championship Game. Sabb said that the Rose Bowl was eye-opening for him. The Crimson Tide played physical and that helped him make his decision to head to Alabama.
