Audi Crooks to Transfer

Who are you? WHO are you?? Go back in your cave. Audie Crooks is a fine human being. She is deserving of this fine payday and has every right to accept it. She owes ISU, ZERO. Your comments are unnecessary and demeaning to what lowa State University stands for. I will always be a fan of Audie and appreciate her contributions to Iowa State.
I repeatedly misspell the names of people I'm huge fans of too. :cool:
 
What a rude comment. It is a good thing your not her advisor. She did the right thing and escaped from a dysfunctional situation. 1.4 million is meaningful. Kudos to Audie!!! The average salary in the WNBA is under 100K. The WNBA has few opportunities, and a small number of teams. The overseas womens basketball environment is unpredictable and can be a rugged lifestyle with low compensation. Ashley Joens as an example, was never able to secure a solid WNBA contract.

It sort of sounds like the dysfunction was multi-dimentional and that tends to travel.
 
If someone wanted to offer me 1.4 million to be a hawk fan and get all of the tattoos hawks on my belly guy has… I’d do it in a heartbeat.
There are some things money can't buy. Putting the sign of the ***** on my body would ruin my life.
 
This topic seems like it will burn for a while for some...similar to the Eustachy debate! Audi leaving is going to be a point of conflict among ISU fans for quite a bit of time!

The players take money. Some players get different treatment vs the others. This happens at work too.

I am not ready to get all sad and bothered about professional athletes, who are guns for hire, getting all hurt about practice or playing time.

I'm only half excited for football now.

License the IP, make it overtly professional, and get the colleges out of it.

All points asked and answered. The only thing left is for this thread to die--hopefully before I do

Check that against the online actuary tables! I think you will need to maybe live through till April and after March Madness and the WNBA draft. This thread has a 4% of outliving me (odds of me croaking in the next year). That's using the over optimistic S.S. tables, in real life it's more like 10% - 15%.
 
WTF people???
She’s not an ISU Cyclone student athlete anymore. Leave it alone, she is just another person playing for the competition, she will have her good games and a few where she gets exposed for her limitations. Either way, until we play her team…. She should be a non issue, don’t support her NIL products if she has anything from Iowa …. Or national brand. Forget about her….

I will only use my Fareway bags to pick up dog **** from here on out!

Am I doing it right?
