    Illini Women's Basketball 2025-2026

    Good solid game from the women. They were in control most of the game. Officiating was a bit suspect but they didn't let that affect them. Colorado had 1 foul in the first half. Really dislike the officials ignoring so much contact in the women's game (on both sides) this isn't football. That...

    Illini Women's Basketball 2025-2026

    So at what point does Josh take a closer look at the turnover in Basketball (he may already be doing this)? I'll take the Purdue culture and results over what we've seen at Illinois. I'm good with players getting their $$ at this point it's on the Head coach and his staff to build an...

    Iowa 15, Illinois 13, Postgame

    I understand the decision to go with Paddock and thought he played well. But late in the game Iowa adjusted to the quick outside passes and just started playing the passing lane rather than rush hard to the QB. There was no excuse to get back to back passes batted down (especially to the same...
