Audi has entered the portal with 10 Iowa st players. Sheesh! Hypothetically would you want her as your starting Center?
Audi Crooks
- Thread starter Gio2dahouse

Problem #1: her price. I suspect it will be above our budget. and almost certainly would preclude adding anyone else.
Problem #2: she requires a completely different offense and defense than what we run. The offense is reasonably malleable, but the defensive changes would be a complete departure with what we have established as our strength over the last 5 years.
So combination of money and style, I would say no.. But man she would be fun to watch in the best shade of blue.
I will be very interested to see her finalists, where she lands and how that team changes.

I can see them pushing for her hard as a Reagan Beers replacement.
They dropped a giant bag for the #1 HS recruit last year
Likely the best thing Crooks can do for us is take one big spender out of the post player market. The more bigs that hit the portal the better.
I agree totally with all of the comments about Crooks. She is a defensive liability. Remember the freshmen from Syracuse was taking it to her. Syracuse put them out of the NCAAT this year.
Her weakness is on the defensive end when you pull her away from the basket. She was exposed against Syracuse and the freshman from Syracuse was taking it to her. I would rather have the freshman from Syracuse which I know she is not leaving then her.
