Keene's father and Coach Wiles were college roommates at Murray State.

At the U.S. Army Combine, Keene measured in at 6-5, 223 pounds, had a 4.3 short shuttle, a fast 6.5 L-cone drill, a 34 inch vertical and a standing broad jump of 9 feet 11 inches.

He chose Virginia Tech over offers from Nebraska, Missouri, Colorado, Iowa State, Colorado State and Syracuse.

He is rated as the No. 4 player in the state of Colorado.
