Iowa women's basketball offers highly-touted 2027 recruit

According to her MaxPreps statistics, Mignery averaged an impressive 16.0 points per game on 56% shooting from the floor, 36% from 3-point territory, and 77% from the free-throw line through 28 contests in her sophomore season with Cardinal Mooney.

Mignery captained the Cardinal Mooney team to a 24-9 record and helped guide the school to a 2025 Florida High School Athletic Association Class 3A state championship with 19 points and 11 rebounds in the title game against Bolles.
Mignery has also turned heads with her play with Girls Under Armour Association squad FGB.

What Jared Curtis' commitment means to Georgia's 2026 class
When Jared Curtis originally committed to Georgia last March, Kirby Smart likely thought he had the cornerstone of his 2026 class and quarterback of the future. Instead, Curtis threw a wrench in those plans with his decommitment in October. Despite that decision, Smart and the Bulldogs never let up and remained a constant presence in Curtis' recruitment. Advertisement That consistency paid off Monday afternoon as the five-star quarterback out of Nashville Christian announced that he had recommitted to the Bulldogs in a decision between Georgia and Oregon. A few schools made the list for Curtis following his October decommitment. That list was narrowed down to two in late March after he announced his top two of Georgia and Oregon, as well as his commitment date. Since then, both schools have gone to work putting together their final pitches for Curtis. He recently hosted both coaching staff members ahead of his decision. Ultimately, it was Smart and the Bulldogs that regained his favor, and what a decision it was for them. Advertisement Best Georgia high schools for athletes? According to one study, these are the top 25 According to 247Sports, Curtis ranks as the No. 13 player in the country and the No. 4 quarterback in the 2026 recruiting cycle. The 247Sports Composite ranking is much higher on Curtis, ranking him as the No. 2 player in the cycle and No. 1 quarterback. He adds a massive boost to a Georgia class that is well off where the Bulldogs typically sit in the rankings since Smart returned home to Athens. Usually a top-three to five team in the rankings, Georgia's 2026 class ranked No. 26. None of their seven pledges at the time ranked as top-100 prospects. Advertisement With Curtis, the Bulldogs jumped significantly in the rankings, which gave them their true cornerstone of the class once again.

He's listed as a three-star prospect by and a four-star per composite rankings. Advertisement Hall is the first defensive back to commit to UF's 2026 class, a list that includes quarterback Will Griffin (four-star, Jesuit Prep, Tampa), defensive lineman Jamir Perez (three-star, Glenville High, Cleveland, Ohio) and inside offensive lineman G'Nivre Carr (three-star, IMG Academy, Bradenton). Under fourth-year coach Billy Napier, Florida is looking to build off its recruiting moment from a year ago, when it rallied late to put together a 2025 class that ranked seventh nationally, per 247Sports. Some of those players stood out as early enrollees in UF's spring game, including five-star wide receiver Dallas Wilson, who had 10 catches for 195 yards and 2 TDs. Here's more information on Hall per Gannett Florida's USA Today in-state recruiting database: Kaiden Hall School: Milton Advertisement Commitment: Florida Height, Weight: 6-3, 195 pounds 2024 Stats: 28 carries, 161 rushing yards, 2 rushing TDs, 8 catches, 80 receiving yards, 32 tackles, 3 TFL (MaxPreps) USA Today Florida Network Ranking: No. 21 (No. 1 ATH) USA Today Florida Network Star Rating: 4 ★★★★ USA Today Florida Network grade: 91.5 247Sports Composite: 4 star, No. 21 player in Florida, No. 12 safety in the country Scouting report: Hall displays an incredible understanding of his position whichever it is on the field. He has arguably the best run support of any safety in the class, elite size that makes him a dangerous receiver. He's very physical, and his explosiveness is a real plus.
