Early Enrollees: Khalid Kareem

KHALID KAREEM
Pontiac, Michigan

Measurables: 6’4″, 245 lbs.

Accolades: Semper Fidelis All-American, consensus Top 250 recruit, 2015 MLive Detroit Defensive Player of the Year, first-team All-State.

Impressive Offers: Alabama, Michigan State, Michigan, Ohio State, Stanford

Projected Position: Strongside defensive end

Quick Take: Another one of the Midwest’s top recruits, Kareem is another potential solution at defensive end. Physically impressive with room to grow, if Hayes projects as a future weakside pass rusher, Kareem looks like an anchor on the strong side.

Once committed to Alabama, Kareem decided to play his college football closer to home and chose the Irish over a slew of impressive options.
