Audi Crooks to Transfer

[RonBurgundy]

1.4M. they found a booster to spend over 4M on their roster.

LOL. Literally the worst money ever spent if true.

OSU may be improved, but they are no UCLA, UConn, USC or any other top 10 school.

Shame on Audi for selecting a bag over an ISU legacy. But she made her choice. Have fun playing meaningless ball in front of 3 thousand fans. Hope she is booed like only a KU fan can boo if she sets foot in Hilton.

This is lame. If it was my child, I’d damn we’ll tell them to take the $$. It’s life changing. What is a ISU legacy worth these days anyway? Free chili for life at the Tip-top?

I guess it’s real easy when it’s not your money. Blame the current system and the staff for not keeping this thing together. She took less before and would have again most likely, but the staff spit the bit. As a bold prediction, I’ll bet OSU’s games will have more meaning than ours in 2026-27.

Well said. Nothing is guaranteed in life. $1.4 million is as much as the highest paid WNBA players make in a year. If someone offered me the top salary in my profession for a year's worth of work, you'd better believe I would take it. The vast majority of people would.

I’m goin to wait for more sources on that 1.4M. If it is true, then IMHO OSU is out of their minds.

What exactly does an 'ISU legacy' do?

I’m ok with bag chasing this day and age. Less ok with staying in conference and competing. If you’re willing to openly make the place you were at 3 years an automatic enemy, you become an automatic enemy.

Good riddance, I will be hoping for a nice drought in Stillwater so those roots struggle to establish.

I’d guess it is true. You’re going to see schools every year spend major money on WBB for a year and then have boosters realize how stupid it is when they don’t make the final 4. Those schools will then not do it again, while another school goes to repeat history.

And, sometimes starting fresh is a great thing for someone.

Almost all of the other teammates have been reposting each other's portal announcements and commitments on Instagram and twitter. Safe to say that it's not a coincidence that not a single one reposted either of Audis announcements. What a weird, unfortunate ending.

On the bright side, gives us quite a few answers as thoughts on coaching and locker room culture since no one is going to say it out loud.

I will take the under on both.

Ce la vie

Now we can focus on our recruiting.

Is it over?

 

[BillBrasky4Cy]

The amount of hurt feelings in this thread is hilarious.

What are the program revue share totals at places like UConn, UCLA, LSU, Texas, and South Carolina?

Agree. Still amazed by the number of ‘100% not about the money’ posters in this thread.

What will make Okie State fans mad first?

Audi tripping over her own feet for the 6th time in the game and taking 20 seconds to get up and go to the defensive end, complaining to the official that she was fouled the whole time?

Audi missing her 9th contested fadeaway from the FT line?

Audi cherry picking while the opposing team grabs 4 offensive boards in a single possession?

Audi watching opponents take wide open layups driving from the 3 pt line because she is supposed to “stand right here and don’t move” on defense?

She can chug a beer at a concert, dummy.

 

[Stormin]

What fans?

What kind of attendance do you think the Cyclones Women will have. I’m not expecting large crowds. In fact, IMO we may not have a very good attendance for Coach Fennelly and this new team.

IMO Audi knows her limitations. I do feel that this year her conditioning has gotten worse. The bike isn’t working. Back to wind sprints. Audi transfer was all about money. $1.4 million. New area to build a brand. Hopefully the new surroundings will motivate her to get in better shape. But still don’t see Audi being in WNBA.

Only way she gets into better condition is if she eats a proper diet but she has her feelings about all that.
