Of note, at ISU, Fennelly gave Crooks the option of exiting and entering the game at her own discretion.

How many other HCs in the country would do that?

Interesting the 5 likely landing spots they are predicting are TCU , USC , Texas , LSU and ND .

Iowa​

This would obviously be a contentious move given the Iowa State-Iowa rivalry, but the Hawkeyes would give Crooks a chance to compete while remaining in state and close to her mom and small hometown of Algona. Plus, few teams enjoy playing through the post as much as Iowa.

Minnesota​

Minnesota may not be the first school you think of for a high-profile transfer, but the program could be a good fit for Crooks. And she, in turn, could be the player to continue their upward trajectory after they reached the Sweet 16 this season for the first time since 2005.


feels like oklahoma should be in the mix as well. iowa roots. fine team. lots of parts. not a lifetime away from algona.

I hope Iowa doesn’t try to get Audi Crooks. Her defense, or lack there of, is a huge liability. On offense, she just camps in the lane…waiting for the ball to come to her. It really clogs up the offensive flow. The Huskers can have her!

Trust me...they are not thrilled that they are coaching.
I know this is meant to be taken lightly, but I am thankful for the time I spent coaching women's sports. I was a low level assistant, but I got to coach against kids that played in the WNBA and overseas, coach kids who played D1 ball, and most importantly, kids that are out there doing big things. Three kids from one team are now practicing Physician's Assistants. Super proud of who our young people achieved.

This says it all. You would have been the type of person I would have hired as a Principal/AD. Congratulations on contributing to their lives.

I agree the fat *** is a liability. If Amy offers she should be fired for cause.

You are confusing what I am saying.

Very few people get into coaching...hoping that they will one day coach a girls team. It doesn't mean you don't enjoy it. I have coached girls sports for 10 years now. It is a great time.

It was never my dream or some amazing thrill.

She has the exact same vertical as Angel Reese. And defense is optional. But with the right coach, she can plug up the lane, and get some boards. I would take her in a heart beat. Basically a female Charles Barkley. But she can score. I can see it now.....The wide load from Lincoln. The Crisco Kid....The bread Truck.....fans here would love her.
Nah.

Can you imagine the NIL money she could get to endorse barbecue joints?

crooks doesn't seem like the type to create personal and family controversy by going to iowa city. N, ou, and minnesota for that reason make more sense. all out of the b12 as well.

I want Audi Crooks at Nebraska to team up with Prince and Potts. In women's basketball, you can guard two, but its tough to guard three scorers. Most people on this board could give two $*** about women's sports, but I care, because we need as many sports as possible to turn a profit or minimize loss. Also, I don't like people who don't like what I like from behind the safety of my keyboard. So all of you who could care less, have a rotten weekend.

I don't see adding Audi Crooks helping the Women's Basketball team to not lose money. It's our biggest money loser and will be that way with or without Crooks.

adding this player will not change the financial bottom line for the women’s basketball program

Amen

If it was not for Title 9...every school would cut every girls sport today.

Imagine having to pay a womans coach like 750K (I have no idea how much they make) to coach a sport that loses tons of money.
