IU football is in the final four schools for class of 2027 offensive tackle Conner Rutherford.
Rutherford is also still considering Miami, Minnesota, and NC State.
A 6-foot-6 and 300-pound offensive tackle from Chillicothe, Ohio. He’s a multi-sport athlete, also competing in wrestling. He has played on both the offensive and defensive lines in high school, but he’s an offensive line prospect for IU.
Rutherford is a consensus 3-star prospect, the No. 723 overall player in the class, and the No. 50 offensive tackle.
The Hoosiers formally entered Rutherford’s recruitment with an offer this month and they’ve been showing increasing interest since. IU offensive line coach Bob Bostad visited Rutherford at his school Monday as the Hoosiers make their final push.
Rutherford has an official visit set in Bloomington May 29-31. He also visited during spring practice this month. He also has June visits set to NC State and Minnesota.
The 2027 class should come together over the next two months as players complete their scheduled visits. As of Tuesday morning, IU has four 2027 commits as part of what is expected to be one its best recruiting classes of all-time.
Rutherford’s junior season highlights are below.
