Top transfer portal player Audi Crooks may have hinted at her next team

Iowa State junior Audi Crooks is one of the most dangerous scorers in the NCAA.

The 6-foot-3 center was the second-leading scorer in the NCAA last season, averaging 25.8 points per game — second to only Vanderbilt’s Mikayla Blakes (27 points per game).

But after three years with the Cyclones, Crooks decided it was time for a change of scenery. She hit the transfer portal shortly after the season ended, and she’s been one of the more sought-after players in the country ever since.

As Crooks, a three-time first-team All-Big 12 selection, a second-team All-American, and the 2024 Big 12 Freshman of the Year, weighs her options, she may have hinted at what she may end up next thanks to her social media activity.

Crooks recently followed the Notre Dame women’s basketball team on Instagram in a move that caught plenty of attention online.

“Audi Crooks, the most sought-after transfer portal target of the year, now follows the official Notre Dame WBB account on Instagram as well as head coach Niele Ivey and players Hannah Hidalgo and KK Bransford,” On3’s Tyler Horka reported.
