Let's go Illinois! I'd love to see this team end the season on a W and build some more forward momentum for this program. The past 2 season have been the most fun Illini Women's Basketball seasons for me to watch since the Jenna Smith playing years!
Woke up today feeling like Christmas morning! As someone who went to Illinois and also roots for Iowa State...I'm hoping to get to see that matchup in the Sweet 16. First things first, lets take care of the state of Morehead today. ILL!!!

Those "questionable" roster decisions at ISU led to several years of talented and fun-to-watch basketball teams. I started following that team when Chris Babb (PSU), Royce White (Minn), Korie Lucious (MSU) and Chris Allen (MSU) were all playing or sitting their transfer years because I could...
