He picked ASU with two years of eligibility remaining over Central Florida, Liberty and Memphis.
ASU head coach Kenny Dillingham and the football program have had quite the weekend with fellow Power 5 transfers tight end Markeston Douglas (Florida State), defensive back Javan Robinson (Washington State), cornerback Laterrance Welch (LSU) and defensive lineman J.P. Deeter (Purdue).

Purdue defensive lineman J.P. Deeter’s announcement came shortly after Crook’s, helping to provide depth on the Sun Devils’ front.
The 6-foot-4, 285-pound lineman was a three-star coming out of Manvel High in Texas in 2021 who also held offers from Stanford, Oregon State and Washington State.

Homicide suspect causes barricade situation in east Arkansas jail
PHILLIPS COUNTY, Ark. — A suspect in a Helena-West Helena homicide caused a barricade situation Tuesday as he was being processed in the Phillips County Detention Center.
Authorities said a prisoner who was being processed at the jail was able to get hold of some type of instrument and cause harm to himself.
He barricaded himself in the processing area and pepper spray was used to subdue him.
The prisoner was taken to the local emergency room for treatment. No one else was injured.
Helena-West Helena Police Chief Vincent Bell said he doesn’t know much more about what happened at the jail, but said the inmate is connected to a fatal shooting Tuesday afternoon.
The suspect was being held in connection to an incident where a man was shot dead in the doorway of O’Reilly Auto Parts in West Helena.
The shooting was the result of a disagreement that started in front of a motel, and the victim ran to the front of O’Reilly’s where he was fatally shot.
Chief Bell offered no details on a motive or the name of the victim.
