Iowa women's basketball offers top-10 2028 recruit Arianna Robinson
Iowa women's basketball added another name to their impressive list of prospects by extending an offer to 2028 four-star guard Arianna Robinson on Thursday.
At 5-foot-10, the Texas native currently stars for Plano East High School's varsity squad, competes for the Nike ProSkills 17U EYBL and recently won gold as part of USA Basketball's national team at the U16 Women's AmeriCup.
Robinson is already highly thought of in the 2028 cycle, checking in as the No. 10 overall recruit in ESPN's 2028 SportsCenter NEXT-Terrific 25.
In her lone varsity season so far for Plano East, Robinson averaged an impressive 20.3 points, 7.4 rebounds and 3.1 steals per game through en route to All-Area Player of the Year honors from The Dallas Morning News.
In addition to Iowa, Robinson has also received offers from other premier women's college basketball programs, including Texas, Michigan State, USC, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, TCU, Kansas State, and Kentucky.
As she continues to receive offers and eventually schedule visits as a part of her recruitment process over the next year or so, Iowa hopes its recent success over the past five seasons and upward trajectory under head coach Jan Jensen will entice Robinson to join the program.

Lincoln Riley believes this year's Trojans have what it takes
The USC Trojans had a disappointing start to their tenure in the Big Ten last season. They finished 7-6 overall and had an abysmal 4-5 record in the conference. This was not the usual success we were accustomed to seeing from USC, even though the Trojans are in the Big Ten, the best conference in college football. The expectations were still higher. Lincoln Riley is confident with what he has in the building. He believes that this year will be different. Adrian Medina with the Sporting Tribune broke down Riley's recent comments on USC's depth this season. "Trojans Head Coach Lincoln Riley, entering his fourth year at USC, was confident about the team's sufficiency of depth and support during this year's Big 10 Media Day. It's very apparent that USC is extremely serious about making this football program and returning it back to being one of the greats of college football," Riley said in his opening statement at the podium. "With our current team, seeing how our roster has evolved on all sides, especially defensively, after the huge improvements that we've made a year ago. The championship-caliber depth that is starting to be established all across the board is something that we have all worked hard for." The Trojans have a better coaching staff now with the addition of former NFL defensive coordinator Rob Ryan. They also have a more experienced roster this season. Out of their 68 players, 44 of them saw some action last season, and 17 Trojans got a chance to start. That is the experience needed to help the Trojans be a more competitive team this season in the Big Ten. They can mix in the talented freshmen and transfers they have acquired. It is notable to see Lincoln Riley have confidence in the team he is fielding this year, but now the talk needs to turn into action and results.

USC football countdown to kickoff—Cameron Smith in focus
The countdown to USC's 2025 football season is officially on! The Trojans kick off their new campaign 35 days from today. You need something to help you while away the days and hours in the spring and summer. This is one way to do so. In this new series, countdown to kickoff, we will be counting down the days by highlighting a notable Trojan who wore each number. Today, we look at former USC linebacker Cameron Smith. Position: Linebacker Years played at USC: 2015-2018 Career highlights: As a true freshman in 2015, Smith burst onto the scene with a three-interception game against Utah, one of which he returned for a pick six. Funnily enough, however, those would be the only three interceptions Smith would record in his entire USC career. Despite this, he still had an exceptional tenure in Cardinal and Gold, finishing his time with the Trojans with 353 total tackles, 11 passes defended, and 3.5 sacks. Smith earned first-team All-Pac-12 honors in 2017 and second-team honors in both 2016 and 2018. In both his junior and seniors seasons, he was named a team captain. After USC: The Minnesota Vikings selected Smith in the fifth round of the 2019 NFL Draft. As a rookie, he appeared in five regular season games, recording eight total tackles. During the summer of 2020, however, it was announced that Smith would need to undergo open heart surgery, causing him to miss the entire season. He medically retired from football the following year.
