Indiana football lands commitment from 2026 LB Trevor Gibbs
Per 247Sports, Gibbs is the 71st highest-rated linebacker in the class of 2026 and the 7th highest-rated prospect in the state of Indiana overall. His other offers include Purdue, Cincinnati, Iowa and Illinois.

Additionally, 247Sports lists Buddha Williams as Gibbs primary recruiter. As Indiana's defensive ends coach, that says a bit about what the program sees him as at the next level. Gibbs plays on both sides of the ball for Crown Point, lining up at linebacker on defense and as a tight end on offense.
It's more positive recruiting momentum for Curt Cignetti's staff in the Hoosier state. Cignetti has long stated his desire to recruit players in Indiana's natural footprint, meaning in-state talent along with those from surrounding areas like Ohio, Michigan, Illinois and Kentucky.

Hurricanes land Class of 2026 safety commit. What to know about Cortez Redding
The Miami Hurricanes have their safety for the 2026 recruiting class. Cortez Redding, a four-star prospect according to the 247Sports composite rankings out of Jonesboro (Georgia) High, on Friday announced his commitment to the Hurricanes. He chose Miami over Ole Miss, Indiana and N.C. State. Redding is ranked as the No. 26 safety in the Class of 2026. Of Miami's 22 commits this cycle, 17 are considered blue-chip prospects (either four- or five-star recruits) according to the 247Sports composite ranking. Listed at 6-0 and 175 pounds, Redding recorded 118 tackles, six tackles for loss, three interceptions and 10 defended passes as a junior for Jonesboro last season. Redding is Miami's first safety for the class and helps quell a, relatively speaking, dry spell on the recruiting trail for the Hurricanes. He is UM's third pledge of the month, joining four-star cornerback Brody Jennings out of Jacksonville Mandarin on July 5 and four-star wide receiver Somourian Wingo from St. Augustine on July 17. But in that span, the Hurricanes also missed out on several key targets, including a pair of local talents in five-star Miami Northwestern wide receiver Calvin Russell to Syracuse and four-star Chaminade-Madonna running back Derrek Cooper to Texas.

Blackhawks Should Swing Trade For Bruins Forward
The Chicago Blackhawks have had a quiet off-season thus far, but the possibility of them making another addition to their roster before the season is here should not be ruled out. They currently have over $21 million of cap space and could use it if it means bringing in a player that would help them beyond the 2025-26 campaign.
