Illini plan to take fresh approach after trip to Italy

Instead of going with four experienced seniors like last season, the Illini will take another approach: bring in fresh bodies off the bench, play hard on defense and create opportunities to score.

With these Illini, depth is the biggest asset.

"It's something we can use in the way we attack people," Weber said Tuesday after a 10-day tour through Italy, where the Illini had a 5-1 record in games and scrimmages.
