Audi Crooks to Transfer

In 2025-26 Iowa State WBB shot 35.8±7.7% overall on threes and 37.0±9.0% in Big 12 games (the +/- are standard deviations between games).

We shot poorly from three in the Big 12 tourney game and the NCAA tourney game yes, but we were overall a very good three-point shooting team this season.
That is the point everyone is making. These outside players need to hit much closer

Haven’t followed this much nor WBB. But as someone that’s been to Stillwater a lot and to games with a friend that has season tickets for all OSU sports. She will be playing in front of a few hundred people at GIA.

Last OSU men’s game I was at the announcer literally asked all fans to move closer to the floor as there were open seats everywhere. It was pretty sad.
A few yrs back but I went down to Oklahoma to look at some cattle and catch the ISU -OSU MBB game. Awent to the tkt office to get tkts a donor had bought up a bunch of tkts and they were giving them away at the tkt window. Center court balcony. Worked for me. This was preNIL.
 
I like Oklahoma State - I am a safety consultant for an insurance company and my specialty is fire protection - OSU has an excellent Fire Protection Engineering program and I send a couple of my staff to seminars in Stillwater every year. They're generally in Stillwater for 4 days so I suggest they eat at Eskimo Joe's at least once!

Three years ago I sent one of my Millennials to Fire Protection School in Stillwater over the Summer months and he took his skateboard. He called me at home on the second night and reported he'd been banned from campus for "grinding" his skateboard on the handrails in front of the library. I had to call Campus Security and vouch for him so he could finish the course.
Did you tell them to leave the skateboard in the trunk?

Overall for sure, but wildly inconsistent. Here’s the game by game starting with conference play. Swings wildly from outstanding to really bad.

We were not "wildly inconsistent". Those are very normal/typical numbers. I can't be bothered to compute this for every team but here's a few:

Iowa: 34.8±9.4%
UConn: 38.5±10.1%
UCLA: 36.8±11.4%

Looking at shooting percentages doesn’t tell the whole story.

From an overall statistical calculation standpoint that might be true. Looking at the swings of +25 to -21 to -10 to +25 to start the Big 12 is definitely major.

so 8 games 30% or less, 9 games 40% or more, only 2 games between 30% and 40%.
Seems pretty inconsistent to me. If it was 2 games below 30% and 2 games above 40% with all the rest 35% +/- 5%, that would be consistent.

just barely

I was actually in Penny's at VWM a couple of years ago on a Saturday around Christmas. The entire mall was empty. Nothing was open except Pennies and maybe one or two other stores. Figured it would all be shut down by now. Same with JC Penny.
 
I think shooting including three point shooting in WBB is very inconsistent across the board unless you are one of the elite few.

This is a strange hill you are insisting on dying on. We were not an inconsistent three-point shooting team by the standards of NCAA WBB no matter how badly it didn't pass your eye-test.

If the game-to-game "swings" were "major" then the standard deviation would be large. It's not, it's very normal compared to most other teams.
 
let her be Oklahoma States problem. The system failed her since she arrived on campus here. Weather it was the coaches or Audi not wanting to get more in shape but she was the exact same player from freshman to Junior year. Good low post player but god awful on defense. The other 4 on okie state will get tired of making up for her lack of Defense.
Hopefully they teach her standing with your feet together with one hand in the air isn’t considered posting up.

You’re going to find that with a lot of teams. Including our men who ended up in the Top 10 in the final AP pole that happened to have a generational player that led the country at just under 50%.

Oh by the way he was at 54% mid season so it’s fair to say even Milan’s efficiency dropped in conference.
