Because of the timing of his hiring with the Oregon Ducks, head coach Dan Lanning did not have a great opportunity to build much of a recruiting class before the early signing period.
However, the pieces are starting to line up for what could be a huge 2022 recruiting class before all is said and done.

Most recently, 5-star OT Josh Conerly, the No. 1 rated offensive tackle in the entire class, listed the Ducks in his top 6 while saying that his recruiting has been closed. Conerly stands at 6-foot-5, 275 pounds and is from Rainier Beach, in Seattle.
The other five times included along with the Ducks were Miami (Fla.), Michigan, Oklahoma, USC and Washington.
Conerly is rated as the No. 9 overall prospect in the 2022 class. There is no word yet on when he will make his final decision, but it will have to come before signing day on February 2nd.
