Overview
- Trinity Jones was released from her National Letter of Intent to Clemson and said her recruitment is open as she begins talks with other programs.
- Jones is a top-15 prospect who made the McDonald's All American team and averaged 28.5 points and 8.2 rebounds after returning from an ACL injury.
- She had committed in October and was coach Shawn Poppie's first five-star signee since he took over the Tigers in 2024.
- Clemson's 2026 class was ranked seventh nationally with Jones as its centerpiece, though three SC Next100 signees remain in Kimora Fields (No. 27), Julia Scott (No. 39) and Meeyah Green (No. 50).
- Reporting indicates Clemson does not plan major transfer-portal additions, following a 21-12 season that ended with an overtime NCAA first-round loss to USC.
