I will give us a portal grade of C+/B- so far. I think we will be a solid Big10 team as they have been the last couple of years unless something big happens in the next couple of weeks. Since the portal was not great I think it is up to Green to shake up the team with some different line-ups and...
Found this website, no idea how credible it is, but they are projecting Illinois in the WNIT, with at least one game in Champaign.

Went out with a friend to watch the game at a local sports bar—my 2 cents--
Somewhat disappointing season but as some stated, Green, to her credit, had raised the program in 2 years. My impression of her is that she is ambitious and sees many of the same things that this board does and will not...
Might be unpopular, but I also think that Illinois will be a middle-of-the-Big Ten program if both Cook and Bryant return. Good players but don’t think you can change their games at this time point. It was almost like it was pre-determined that they would take the majority of shots at the...
She is an incredible player and one of the best things that has happened to women’s sports in the past 10+ years, but comparing a man’s record to a woman's record is ridiculous. So if Caitlin played for the Iowa men how many points a game would she score? Or on the flip side, what if Pistol...
I agree about the rebounding but Green is using Dolan as a floor spacer and running her from corner to corner and from the low block to the 3-point line. The problem is that the guards seldom make the extra pass to her. I noticed in the Iowa game that they were overplaying her so she is showing...
That would be great, but let’s not forget about the transfer portal for next year, which will open shortly. I would be surprised if we don’t lose some players to the portal. I would like to see Cori Allen get a look as from what I have seen of her in limited action is that she is a “pass first”...
I think you are spot on, the major problem is not Cook’s and Bryant’s size but the fact that they shoot first and pass second guards and seem to be in a content of who can dribble more. Right now this team does not have a “true point guard”. If both of them shot less, especially the desperation...
