On April 2, former Iowa State Cyclones star center Audi Crooks announced her intention to transfer out of the program she has played for the past three seasons in search of another school to conclude her NCAA career.
In the Instagram post she made detailing this decision, Crooks wrote, "I will cherish all of the genuine connections that I've built during my time at Iowa State. Words cannot fully express how grateful I feel to have called this place home. I want to thank my teammates for their friendship and all the great memories. To my coaches and all the Iowa State staff, thank you for always supporting me.
"I still believe the grass is greener where you water it, and I've done that here. It's why I want you to hear from me directly that I have decided to enter the portal and explore what it means to take root again in new ground," it added.
Ultimately, whichever team Crooks decides to play for should become an immediate championship contender next season. And Crooks deserves that after the three seasons she spent at Iowa State.
