I think we are closer to 8 level than being right behind USC and UCLA. I have stated before I am waiting for official rosters before I dig in deeper. Ton of conference teams added talent in transfer portal. Illinois is adding talent but relying on the same core for 3 straight years.
Illinois also was one of the few teams that had all of our starters play all of those games. Majority of the teams we played were missing players due to injury or transfer portal. Not taking away from our ladies but we beat teams that were on our level.
I only evaluate at the current state...

Top 100 recruit who mainly saw action during junk time. Hopefully the game can slow down for her and she can contribute during competitive games next season. She mainly played during double digit leads whether winning/losing. I don't see her being top few off the bench unless major injuries...
The realistic fans still feel this way
The Illinois fans who didn't follow Women's basketball or very casually are the most critical.....go figure
There are a few "hot take" posters on here I don't take seriously
Do they have a bunch of $ to spend? No
They also have a ton of minutes that are locked up
References for this take? I know just an opinion
