2027 Recruiting
- Thread starter Hawkangler
- Start date
It's recruiting ranking update season and USA Basketball tryout season. Iowa has 6 outstanding '27 offers to players who have visited Iowa, and 1 commit. ESPN and Prospects Nation (PN) have recently updated their rankings as follows:
Nation Williams - ESPN # 14, PN # 13 - recently made made the USA Basketball U17 team.
Destiny Manyawu - ESPN # 23, PN # 45, no USA Basketball invite this summer.
Brookeslee Colvin - ESPN # 25, PN # 31, no USA Basketball invite this summer.
Madeline Mignery - ESPN # 45, PN # 32, U17 tryout, did not survive first cut.
Jada Seubert - ESPN # 72, PN # 47, no USA Basketball invite this summer.
Addison Medeck - ESPN # 75, PN # 52, no USA Basketball invite this summer.
Mya Wilson - ESPN # 88, PN # 57, no USA Basketball invite this summer.
May came and went without any demonstrated public Iowa interest from Iowa's other known '27 offers (who have not visited):
Kaleena Smith - ESPN & PN # 1, made U18 team
Ivanna Wilson-Manyacka - ESPN & PN # 2, made U17 team
Sydney Savoury - ESPN # 8, PN # 3, made U18 team
Harper Dunn - ESPN # 28, PN # 37, finalist for U17 team
Khalia Hartwell - ESPN # 71, PN # 38, U17 tryout, did not survive first cut
Hard to tell if any serious Iowa interest in this group.
Unlike last year, May also came and went without any new reported '27 offers. Perhaps there are some unknown offerees or perhaps Iowa feels good about where it stands with its known offerees.

It really seems that Iowa has chosen the strategy of not making an offer for now.
Another factor could be the uncertainty surrounding the pending decision on the 5 in 5 rule change.
Good point. If 5-for-5 passes, Whiting would have 2 more years of eligibility, and Heiden/Chit Chat/Carnegie/Stremlow/Faison would have 3 more years, correct?
If Iowa retains seven or eight players from its main core and doesn't lose any of them to Portal, the recruitment in the 2027 class will be focused on finding some pieces for bench depth. The recruitment in the 2028 will be more important with several main core players on the roster in senior year.
