Bengals to host Josh Conerly for top-30 visit

Yahoo22-03-2025

The Cincinnati Bengals have a top-30 draft visit scheduled with Oregon offensive tackle Josh Conerly Jr, according to James Crepea of The Oregonian.
The Bengals are always going to continue searching for help in the trenches, especially now that they have doled out contracts that total over $120 million per year to quarterback Joe Burrow ($55 million) and wide receivers Ja'Marr Chase ($40.25) and Tee Higgins ($28.75).
Conerly could be a potential Day 2 pick for the Bengals. He was named First Team All-Big Ten and Third Team All-American in 2024 after starting all 14 games for the Big Ten champion Ducks. While he may be a bit undersized (6'4, 313 pounds), he has the explosiveness and athleticism to develop into a strong tackle or guard at the next level.
He showed progress as the season wore on, including holding his own against potential No. 1 pick Abdul Carter in the Big Ten championship game.
This visit will give the Bengals a chance to gather more information on Conerly. Top-30 visits are simply 30 official visits allowed for each team with non-local draft prospects. It doesn't necessarily mean they're a top-30 player or that the Bengals will even draft him. Rather, it's a chance to get the prospect in a formal setting for an interview and a physical. Still, Conerly is a name to potentially watch in round two for the Bengals.
Oregon OT Josh Conerly Jr. has top 30 visits scheduled with Atlanta Falcons, Chicago Bears, Cincinnati Bengals, Houston Texans, New Orleans Saints, Philadelphia Eagles & Washington Commanders, per league source.Texans & Commanders among Conerly's 12 formal meetings @ NFL Combine

Olympic gold medalist Sarah Hildebrandt leads new Real American Freestyle wrestling signees

Olympic gold medalist Sarah Hildebrandt headlines a group of four women who have signed with Real American Freestyle wrestling. Hildebrandt became the fourth American woman to win a gold medal in Olympic wrestling when she defeated Yusneylis Guzman Lopez of Cuba in the 50-kilogram final last year in Paris. Other signees the new company announced Thursday are Olympic silver medalist Lucía 'Jami' Yepez Guzman, Audrey Jimenez and Zeltin Hernandez Guerra. They join Kennedy Blades, a silver medalist for the United States at the Paris Olympics, as the anchors of the women's division. 'Real American Freestyle was created to trailblaze, and these incredible women joining our roster are a critical part of that,' RAF commissioner Hulk Hogan said in a statement. Yepez Guzman, who is from Ecuador, was a silver medalist at the Paris Olympics. She also won gold at the 2023 Pan American Games, the 2021 Junior Pan American Games and the 2021 U23 World Wrestling Championships. Jimenez, 19, was a U.S. Olympic Trials runner-up. She was the first female to win an Arizona state championship in the boys division. She won the 2025 Senior Pan American Championships at 50 kilograms last month, with a win over Guzman Lopez in the semifinals. Hernandez Guerra is a Mexican who won gold at the U23 Pan American Championships last year. ___

Indiana basketball strengthens schedule with neutral-site game against Louisville

BLOOMINGTON – IU officially announced Thursday a nonconference date with Louisville, strengthening its schedule ahead of Darian DeVries' first season. The Hoosiers will tip off against U of L at 2:30 p.m. Dec. 6, with the game to be held at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in downtown Indianapolis. IndyStar understands the meeting will be a one-off, rather than part of a multi-year series. One of the most active and successful teams in the spring portal window, Louisville looks to build off a 27-win season in Pat Kelsey's first year in charge. The Cardinals finished tied for second in an admittedly weak ACC, before losing in the first round of the NCAA tournament to Creighton. This will be Indiana's 22nd game all time against Louisville, and its third in the last three years. Kelsey's team routed IU, 89-61, in an opening-round of last season's Battle 4 Atlantis. Louisville now occupies one of the coveted December Saturday slots typically reserved for high-level nonconference matchups in college basketball. IU will travel to Kentucky the following Saturday for the first game in a four-year series renewing that interstate rivalry, with tipoff time to be determined. The Hoosiers' game with Louisville adds flavor to what will already be a busy Saturday in Indianapolis — the Big Ten football championship game is scheduled for the same day at Lucas Oil Stadium. Our book on Bob Knight makes a great Father's Day gift! Thursday's announcement formally adds to what is now a sturdy nonconference schedule. The Hoosiers will play Marquette on Nov. 9 in Chicago, in addition to games against the Cardinals (Indianapolis) and Wildcats (Lexington). IU is also expected to pursue a nonconference home game against a high-major opponent, likely in another one-off setup similar to last year's visit from South Carolina. Kansas State is understood to be among the possibilities.
