Rylan Keesling

Three-year varsity starter...two-time All-Conference selection...senior All-State selection...academic All-State selection...team captain...accumulated 155 tackles, 24 tackles for loss, 13 sacks and three interceptions in his career. "I chose Butler because it offers a strong balance of academics and football. I really connected with the team culture and felt comfortable with the coaching staff from the start. Butler is a great academic school, and I liked that the football program emphasizes development on and off the field. It felt like a place where I could grow as a player, a student and a person."
