We're in it for a 5 star tackle? Wtf, I'm reading this ***** from the beginning because I have no idea what's going on.

Love it
I expect a a huge deal of OL offers to be extended here after this early signing period and for them to give it everything they have, especially this kid. That film is ridiculous. That is an A+ athlete for a big man.
You talk sense. Nobody needs OL more than us to be serious contenders. Trust me Mario knows that better than any of us.

I’m being cautiously optimistic here, because as we’ve seen today with the FSU clown show, thinks can change quick in this game.

But can you guys imagine if/when Mario pulls Conerly Jr. and Armella on the OL? It’ll crash CiS. @Andrew, hope that you’re getting the site ready for NSD in February. I have a feeling that you’re gonna have records broken for traffic on that day.
We will be ready

Not one mention of Miami.
@LeedsCane is Dan Sileo Jr.


Lol I’m laughing but nah forreal though....

“No more free Randy” around these parts, kid didn’t even mention us. For a kid that was ready to commit without seeing UM, DSJR vibes for sure. We’re on to you ...

OT: 6 ft 5 inches 280 lbs

PROJECTION​

First Round

COMPARISON​

Rashawn Slater LOS ANGELES CHARGERS


With a basketball background and running back history in youth football, Conerly is an athletic offensive tackle with great length, long arms and tremendous footwork, given his experience in the lane in basketball. Shows tremendous flexibility with natural knee bend, athletic and physical when clearing out running lanes and pulling. Smoothly changes direction and shows the balance, agility and explosion when in the open field. Uses hands extremely well, quick set in his pass blocking and can re-direct and anchor with ability to reset. Has a great motor and a high football IQ. Because of basketball background, stays in great shape, but will need to add weight and get stronger in college but possesses an optimal frame to do so. Projects as multi-year Power 5 starter and projects as first round pick.

(As a side note he is not an early signee and was considered highly interested in Oregon primarily because of Mario and Alex so I would expect a January visit and a legitimate chance to land him if he does visit)


Great read on what both Mario and Alex mean to the young man, obvious his pull to the school was in large part because of them.

SI recruiting write up from over the Summer: "A plus athlete on both sides of the football for Rainer Beach, Conerly is dominant from opening kick to the closing whistle. The lighter frame will hold a considerable amount of weight once in a college weight program. Any offensive lineman with these hips, hands, and movement skills will translate to collegiate success with little to no doubt. Conerly has an elite quickness in his first two steps, an invaluable skill for a young lineman."

Comparison is slater???? I don't know who he is but BRING HIM IN LOL

Probably because Mario's been recruiting him this whole time and he wouldn't have given the time of day to the old staff.

I don't know if Mario can pull a rabbit out his a$$ and salvage this class to be top 20 but the man is putting in some work. Imagine a whole season and off-season, in this recruiting base, convincing kids to play and live in Miami rather than Eugene. Man..
Top 20 isn't going to be that hard to get to. We shouldn't even be focused on the rankings. The only reason we are low right now is because we only have 8 recruits signed, but 7 of the 8 are "blue chips." You could even argue 8/8 because Jayden Harris is a late bloomer. I actually hate that we put these young men into boxes with this star system. However, If we signed 8 more 3-star players we'd break the top 20. That's not the goal. Mario is building a roster to compete at the highest level. He's going after blue chip recruits.

For reference, Oklahoma is sitting at #10 with 15 recruits signed (4-star:12, 3-star:3). Clemson is at #17 with 13 recruits signed (5-star:1, 4-star:9, 3-star:3). If we signed 6-7 more blue chips, we could take that #10 spot. Even if we sign just 3 more blue chips, we break the top 20.

Again, the rankings are just a reference point. It's not about where you are on some list. It's about what you have on your roster.
