Ok Thanks. I am a basketball season ticket holder and I fund member but ordered football season tickets first time yesterday. So I would assume I will receive an email with info on the parking?

Yeah - they will send you an email with available lot options based upon your donor level. Once everyone responds back with their preferred lot choices, it is then allocated based upon priority points within each level.

Thanks KBLEE and Konnie for the info.
Here is a nice lay out of the IFUND membership levels and the benefits of each level: http://iamtheifund.com/membership-levels.html
But to answer your question directly you have to donate at the Captains Level at a minimum to get a parking pass.

The specific dollar amount for the purchase of your tickets does not count towards your donation or level.
You get priority points for consecutive years of season tickets purchased (1000 points per year) and 1 point for every dollar donated... so if you now have tickets and gave $100, you would have 1100 points in the Captains Club donor level.
Parking is then allocated based on points within your level. Someone who has 12,000 points but is in Champions club and give $500 annually would get their parking before someone who give $100 annually but has 25,000 points
You will get an email basically saying based off the dollar amount you give, here are the lots you can choose, and you list your preferences in order and then they allocate from top to bottom using the points within the donor levels.
great writeup thank you very much
Thank you konnie

Sorry, I am not saying this is like a new thing, I'm just trying to read the chart here: http://iamtheifund.com/membership-levels.html
Sorry if this is a misleading comment!
If you are looking at the IFUND benefits chart you do not get tickets for free, that is the limit as to how many you can order in the "priority seating area" which I think is between the 30 yard lines etc...
You still have to buy the tickets.

so i noticed that the seats next to me in sec 108 row 20 are taken... who's my new friend?
I remember getting an email in the summer about the cushioned seat backs. Here is a web site where I go to rent mine for the season. https://www.seatbacks.com/main.aspx?school=illinicushion
This roster is ok. Good enough to go 5-7 but that's the ceiling IMO. Don't expect too much the first year; this is a rebuilding project that will take 3 years
don't agree that's the ceiling. With a defensive scheme that doesn't rely so much on "dare ya", the D will improve even more than it did over the course of 2015. Offense gets back even more than what they lost. ST will be a strong suit instead of a hinderance.
I suppose this is off topic, but the ceiling raises due to such a superior staff.
Unless our offensive depth is decimated by injuries again, there will not be a game that we won't have a fighting chance in next season. I'm not predicting 12-0, but we could win 10 games next season with our experience, this coaching staff, a healthy roster, momentum and some good fortune. I will be happy with 7 wins.
2017 season on the other hand offers a lower ceiling. Will be replacing Lunt, Spencer, Schmidt, White, and Davis on offense (QB, 2 OL, 2 TE) AND Clements, Bain, Smoot, Phillips, President, Svetina, Mosely, Cazley, Day, Barton (5 DL, 1 LB, 3 DB)
One positive, and I commend Beckman and Cubit for this: Our roster isn't empty, we are not in need of a complete overhaul. This coaching staff will have inherited a lot of red-shirted players, AND will be able to reload right off the bat as there will be plenty of open scholarships next season with all of the graduating players.
The ceiling is lower than 10. but you are correct that this is not an "empty cupboard" scenario like Beckman was getting.
For those of you more plugged in/knowledgeable... anyone want to break down what they see the depth chart being going into spring ball?
I thought that was me, nope. I am sec 108 row 36 seats 29-30 (aisle seats).
Dropped $600 today for 6 season tickets and a parking pass. Go Illini
As long as Wes Lunt is the starting QB, we are going to struggle. I wish that wasn't the case and I hope Wes has improved but, in my opinion, his lack of mobility, toughness, and inability to make proper reads have lead to our Offensive challenges the past two years. I am excited about the coaching changes but our new OC will have to be pretty special to bring out the best in Wes Lunt.
I'm giving Wes an incomplete. Until he has played under this staff, I'm not ready to write him off. He has shown flashes under the horrible offensive programs of the past.
