UPDATED: 8/19/22

Colleges across the nation continue to take notice of the prep talent in Arizona each season. More than 390 players from the Class of 2022 signed with schools to advance their football careers, and receive an education.

Times for games are given in Arizona time.

Out of Saguaro HS, Shea Freibaum is considered one of the top ranked long snappers in the country. The 6-1, 195-pound special teams player received an offer from Oregon State last Thursday. Freibaum will play in the Under Armour All-American Game in Orlando next January. He is ranked No. 2 by Kohl's Professional Camps nationally for the Class of 2023. He had the highest charted total at the national Kohl's Snapping Camp this summer and put 11 of his 12 snaps through the target with an average time of 0.67 seconds. He should be able to start right away as a freshman. But first, Freibaum will try and help the Sabercats go back-to-back as Open Division champions. Reser Stadium, on the campus of Oregon State University, has been under construction. Some new things fans will see this year include a new video board ($5 million), upper seating and press level complete on the west side, and framing of the walls on Beaver Street. It will feature a 360-degree concourse, expanded concessions and restrooms, and enhanced sightlines. The Beavers will start the season at home in Corvallis against Boise State on Sept. 3. The game will kick off at 7:30 p.m. and be televised on ESPN. OSU went 7-6 last season and played in the LA Bowl at SoFi Stadium.

Clarke University in Iowa became the first school to extend an offer to Luke Luna last Friday. The 5-9, 220-pound defensive tackle at Casa Grande is the Cougars' leading returning tackler from the team that went 14-0 and won the 4A Conference championship. Luna tallied 84 tackles along with 2.5 sacks and a pair of fumble recoveries. A multi-sport athlete, he was also a wrestling state qualifier last February. He's ready to anchor the D-line for his senior year which also happens to be his father, Mark's, first season as head coach at CGUHS. Clarke will kick off its season on Aug. 25 at Evangel University (Mo.). The Pride competes in the Heart of America Athletic Conference (NAIA). Clarke posted a 1-10 record last year in its third season of football.

Highland offensive tackle Caleb Lomu collected another offer last Saturday. Missouri became the third school from the SEC (and 22nd overall) to offer the All-American lineman. Lomu (6-5, 265) will play in the 2023 All-American Game in San Antonio in January. He has taken three of his five allowed official visits thus far (Arizona, Utah, and Cal). Highland won the 6A Conference championship last year and will open this season at Desert Ridge on Sept. 2. Missouri will start its season one day earlier, on Thursday with a home game against Louisiana Tech. The Tigers will start Brady Cook, who made his first career start in Mizzou's Armed Forces Bowl game against Army. Missouri finished 6-7 last year.

Apache Junction will be welcoming Gavin Limongello back for his third year as the Prospectors' starting QB. He earned an offer last Saturday from Knox College. Limongello, who is 6-foot and 185 pounds, was the 4A Black Canyon Region Player of the Year in 2021 after passing for 2,002 yards and 14 touchdowns. A dual-threat, he also rushed for 899 yards and 13 TDs. You could even call him a triple-threat when you look at his numbers in the weight room. He can bench 255 pounds and squat 455. Knox, located in western Illinois, will begin its season at home in Knosher Bowl against Eureka College (Ill.) on Aug. 27. The Prairie Fire play in the Midwest Conference (Div. III) and finished 3-6 last year.

One of the returners on Hamilton's defense is Genesis Smith. The safety gained an offer from UNLV last Sunday. The 6-2, 185-pound secondary player had 40 tackles and four interceptions for a Huskies' team that advanced to the Open Division semifinals. Smith shows athleticism, works hard, and is willing to be coached. Next week, the Huskies travel north to Pinnacle HS for their scrimmage. Monday marked the start of the final week of Camp Rebel for UNLV. A pair of quarterbacks are still battling for the starting job. UNLV will get going at the end of next week with a home game against Idaho State on Aug. 27. The Rebels play in the Mountain West Conference and went 2-10 last year.

Mountain Ridge brings back a large senior class (25 seniors) this year. One of those is Korey Johnson, who got an offer from Colorado School of Mines last Sunday. Johnson, a 6-foot, 175-pound cornerback, made 42 tackles for the Mountain Lions in 2021. Over the summer, he saw quite a bit of time at receiver during 7-on-7 tournaments and could be used there as well. Colorado Mines is a top engineering school and Johnson represents the academic requirements there with his 4.06 GPA. Mountain Ridge goes to Cactus for its scrimmage on Aug. 24. Colorado Mines plays in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (Div. II) and is ranked No. 4 in the coaches' preseason poll, the Orediggers highest-ever preseason recognition. Mines went 12-2 and reached the semifinals last year. This year, the Orediggers come out of the gates with a pair of games of national interest. Mines travels to Michigan to face No. 5 Grand Valley State on Thursday, Sept. 1. That will be followed by the home opener in Golden against No. 7 Angelo State (Tex.).

A teammate of Smith's at Hamilton received an offer on Friday as Alex McLaughlin obtained it from Southern Utah. McLaughlin is the Huskies' leading returning tackler with 80 along with a pair of sacks. The 6-2, 200-pound linebacker also plays the nickel in some packages. McLaughlin was selected to the First Team All-6A Premier Region. He comes from an athletic family as his mother ran track in college, his dad played baseball, and older brothers are involved in minor league baseball and college basketball. Southern Utah opens its season on Thursday, Sept. 1 at home in Cedar City against St. Thomas (Minn.). The Thunderbirds (1-10 last season) have moved this year from the Big Sky Conference to the Western Athletic Conference (FCS).

This list shows four-year college offers received by juniors throughout the state. It's not limited to just 6A and 5A. It will be constantly updated as we approach the Early Signing Period from December 14-16. Those are the first days that high school seniors can sign a letter of intent to agree to attend an institution.

Verbal commitments are shown in bold.

Whether it's the Nike facilities in Eugene, the personality of the coaches, the long-term success of the program, or all those uniform combinations, Arizona players continue to become part of the flock of Ducks signing with Oregon.

On Wednesday, My'Keil Gardner became the latest to announce his plans for attending college at Oregon. The Liberty defensive end selected the Ducks over 20 other offers, including Michigan, Texas, and USC.

Arizona Varsity's Jacob Seliga and Cody Cameron interviewed Gardner and broke down his film.

The 6-2, 285-pound lineman had a breakthrough junior season with 86 tackles (24 TFL) and 10 sacks. He also helped Liberty advance in the 2021 Open Division playoffs with 4.5 sacks in a win over Basha.

Gardner received his offer from the Ducks in January and took an unofficial visit in March. He took all five of his official visits in May and June with Oregon being the last of the five on June 24. His other officials were to Cal, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Texas.

There are four players on the current Oregon roster that played high school ball in Arizona. They are: Ty Thompson (Mesquite), Brandon Buckner (Chandler), Kyler Kasper (Williams Field), and Bram Walden (Saguaro).

At the recent Pac-12 Media Day, new Oregon head coach Dan Lanning said there will be a competition for the starting quarterback job between Thompson and two other contenders (Jay Butterfield and Bo Nix) leading up to the Ducks' season opener at Georgia on Sept. 3. The Ducks won the Pac-12 North in the final year of division play in 2021 and finished 10-4 after their Alamo Bowl game against Oklahoma. The Georgia game will be on ABC at 12:30 p.m. on that first full college football Saturday. Oregon misses Arizona State this year, but travels to Tucson on Oct. 8 to face Arizona.

Just two days after Gardner's commitment, one of his Liberty teammates from the other side of the line announced where he is going. Offensive tackle Layton Vining will be going to the University of Idaho.

Vining, a 6-3, 260-pound lineman, received his offer from Idaho in June. He was named a Second Team All-6A Conference selection following another great season with Liberty, where the Lions advanced to the Open semifinals and took Chandler to overtime for the second straight year.

Vining can bench 325 pounds and squat 500. He also lifts the books well as he totes a 4.0 GPA. He is versatile enough to also be able to play the center and guard positions and will become a three-year starter for Liberty.

Idaho was the first school to offer Vining. He becomes the second Arizona HS commit to the Vandals in just three weeks joining Basha running back Deshaun Buchanan.

Idaho will start its season with just a 10-mile trip west to Washington State. The game is known as the Battle of the Palouse and will kick off at 6:30 p.m. on Sept. 3. The Pac-12 Network will have the broadcast of the game. After opening with games on the road at the Pac-12 and Big Ten (Indiana), the Vandals will settle into their Big Sky Conference (FCS) schedule. Idaho's first league game will be on Sept. 24 in Flagstaff at Northern Arizona. UI finished 4-7 last season.

Sunrise Mountain quarterback Austin Glimpse ended his recruitment on Thursday, announcing a verbal commit to South Dakota School of Mines.

Glimpse transferred to SMHS in the offseason after being the starter in his junior year at Centennial. He threw for 1,152 yards and three touchdowns as the Coyotes went to the 6A playoffs.

The 6-6, 215-pound signal caller visited South Dakota Mines in April and was offered by the Hardrockers a month later. The school is ranked among the top engineering programs in the country, which is the area Glimpse (who carries a 3.9 GPA) is interested in studying.

"They have aeronautical engineering, which is my dream to pursue," Glimpse said in a text message. "I clicked with the coaches from the get go. When I took an unofficial there, I knew it was home the second I stepped on the field. It's very clear to see that the program is progressing in a super-positive direction."

South Dakota Mines is located in Rapid City, just east of the Black Hills National Forest. It has a population of 75,000. That's much less than the nearly 5 million population of metro Phoenix.

"I always wanted to be in a small college town where the school is the heartbeat of the city," Glimpse said. "At SD Mines, that's 100% the case. Plus, you're within a 30-minute drive to some of the best hiking, fishing, and national parks in the nation."

Glimpse will have to sit the first five games per the AIA transfer rules, but will be ready once the Mustangs begin region play. It's a difficult back half of the schedule that includes games against Cactus, Desert Edge, Verrado, Mountain Pointe, and Millennium.

South Dakota School of Mines competes in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (Div. II). The Hardrockers had their first winning season since 2015 as they went 6-5 last year. SD Mines opens its season on Thursday, Sept. 1 at Missouri S&T.
