Josh Conerly, 2022 5* OL, Seattle (Rainier Beach), WA (Offered)

Seattle (Wash.) Rainier Beach 2022 offensive lineman Josh Conerly was the most impressive sophomore lineman we saw in person in the Northwest this fall on either side of the ball.

Conerly starred at both offensive tackle and on the defensive line for the Vikings, and had one of his best games against Gilbert (Ariz.) Higley, when he matched up with four-star defensive end Jason Harris.

Since then, Conerly has picked up four offers, his most recent offer coming from Oregon State, joining offers from Tennessee, Nevada and Oregon.

"I have four offers and the one that stands out the most was my first from Tennessee which was really unexpected," said Conerly.

Hometown Washington has been in communication with Conerly lately too.

"Washington has been in contact with my coaches but besides that only the ones that have offered me are the ones I’ve been talking to," said Conerly.

UCLA also stopped by in September to check in on Conerly and several more will likely be dropping by in December and January, even before the spring evaluation period.

Conerly has been to a handful of college games this fall.

"I've been to Oregon, Oregon State and Washington. I’ve been to Washington for the Oregon, Eastern Washington and USC games in Seattle, I went to Oregon vs. Cal in Eugene and then this weekend, I was at Oregon state vs. Arizona State in Corvallis," said Conerly. "Every game has been really exciting and entertaining to watch. All of the atmospheres were amazing. Every visit has been different in its own ways but they were all great to witness and it really gives you the college game day feels."

Conerly said that the trip to Oregon State was a good one for him.

"The visit was great,"said Conerly. "I got to meet the coaches and the game was good too. What stood out to me was how as soon as I walked in, everybody came to greet me as if I was a player."

Next on the schedule for Conerly are a couple of rivalry games.

"I’ll be at the Apple Cup for sure and I also want to make it down for the Civil War game," said Conerly.

Conerly said he's been building good relationships with a number of coaches.

"I have a pretty good relationship with Coach Angus (McClure) from Nevada, Coach Mario (Cristobal) and Coach Alex (Mirabel) from Oregon and then during this weekend's visit, I started a great relationship with Coach Jim (Michalzik) from Oregon State," said Conerly.

Conerly wrapped up his sophomore season and earned First Team All-Metro League honors as both an offensive lineman and as a defensive lineman.

He plans to be a part of the FSP Trench Squad in the offseason and will camp with a number of schools in the spring

Huff might not have to leave the State for 2022.

Yeah. No airplanes for Huff.

My sources are telling me that he's ITB for UW.
