Audi Crooks Iowa State Iowa State center Audi Crooks is one of the most dominant forces in women’s college basketball today. Crooks, a junior, leads the nation in scoring with 26.9 points per game to go along with 7.6 rebounds per contest. Crooks stands at 6-foot-3-inches tall and is significantly heavier than the overwhelming majority of both college and pro women’s basketball players. Her size makes her nearly impossible to defend for most teams if she catches the ball in the post. But it’s also drawn criticism from haters and trolls in the pass. “I think it was hard until I recognized the reality – people can hate but they can’t take away what I just did,” she told On3 about the critiques of her physique. “There might be 100 comments about my body or about how I look. But then there are 1,000 about my skill set, about my character, about how I smile and about how I treat other people. “So it’s just like I said, no matter what you do, no matter who you are, if you’re doing something worth doing, then somebody’s going to hate on you. It’s just recognizing that and trying to take the bad with the good – and the good clearly outweighs the bad.” But there are some valid sporting criticisms of Crooks as well. Audi Crooks’ Size And Lack Of Defense Is Killing Her Iowa State Team While Crooks’ size is a massive advantage on the offensive end of the court, it’s a glaring weakness on the defensive end. She struggles to move laterally and is often fatigued in games that are played as a high-pace. Those issues have become abundantly clear in recent weeks, as Iowa State has dropped five straight games after beginning the season 14-0. Cyclones’ opponents are averaging 76 points per game over that span, and 63.8 points per game over the course of the season, which ranks 177th in the country. And they’re attacking Crooks at every opportunity. LMFAOO look at this close out on the shooter by Audi Crooks She ALMOST blocked it pic.twitter.com/qloKLTI0Sk — Hater Report (@HaterReport_) January 5, 2026 In its most recent loss to Texas Tech, the Cyclones allowed 86 points, their second-worst total of the season, and Crooks scored just 15 points on 6-of-14 shooting. As long as she remains wildly efficient on the offensive end, Crooks can still be an extremely useful college basketball player. But when her offense isn’t on, she’s borderline unplayable for coach Bill Fennelly. Beyond that, her lack of mobility makes any sort of WNBA career virtually impossible. Crooks just turned 21, and she still has time to improve on defense. But she has a long way to go before even reaching a passable level at that end of the floor.

Après son élimination de la Star Academy aux portes des demi-finales, Bastiaan s’est longuement confié auprès du Parisien ce lundi 19 janvier 2026. Le jeune homme de 23 ans a tiré un bilan positif de son aventure.

The Indiana football team will play for a national championship against Miami in South Florida on Monday. Many will be in attendance to root the Hoosiers on. Those not lucky enough to secure title tickets will watch from home. In order to lock in their preferred viewing spots, Hoosier Nation camped out in downtown Bloomington. Happening now in Bloomington… Unmatched dedication. #NeverDaunted pic.twitter.com/l7V4lCHxdR — Kit Hanley (@kithanleytv) January 19, 2026 Droves of Indiana fans flooded local streets in order to be first in line to restaurants and pubs. The tailgating started at 4 am for many, and earlier for a brave few! Here’s *part* of the line to get into Nick’s in Bloomington. I talked to some guys who have been here since 10 pm, and they aren’t the first in line pic.twitter.com/3GKRYwnQDM — Matt Baker (@MattBakerCFB) January 19, 2026 The Upstairs Pub appeared to be a popular spot, so much so, that the establishment issued a safety warning to those planning their overnight stays. While we understand and appreciate the undeniable excitement for tomorrow’s National Championship game, we do ask that people put their safety first this evening… Tonight’s temps are going to be dangerously cold over-night. Those conditions will put people who choose to try and camp at risk for exposure. Because of that fact, we are asking that you please not camp out overnight. We would ask that you please go home, get warm and start the queue no earlier than 7am tomorrow. –Upstairs Pub / X That warning, nor the freezing temperatures, prevented football supporters from setting up shop. Indiana football fans want to witness history. The school has never won a national championship in the sport. They’ve previously been best known as one of college football’s biggest losers. The script has quickly been flipped by head coach Curt Cignetti. The Hoosiers are a perfect 15-0 in his second season. They now boast a Heisman winner under center and their first conference title in six decades. Indiana fans have been waiting for the opportunity to cheer. They’ve now gotten it and haven’t disappointed. The fanbase has taken over previous playoff games, including their most recent in the Peach Bowl. Atlanta was described as being a “sea of red” during the CFP contest.

He has his answer. Most expect the fanbase to again show out for the final game. Can Indiana take over Miami? The university has the nation’s largest living alumni community with more than 805k grads worldwide. Many will be in South Florida to watch the national championship game in person. Those planning to attend have taken in the pregame festivities in the lead up to the matchup. They hope to outnumber the Hurricanes despite it being a quasi-home game.

Fans hope to see history made in the national title game. If it happens, coach Curt Cignetti will enjoy a cold beer with Hoosier Nation, though he’d likely be a few drinks behind his supporters tailgating back in Bloomington.
