AgreeI am really excited about this year’s team, particularly because Green has done so much with such a thin roster. I’m even more excited to see what she can do over the off-season and the transfer portal. It stands to reason potential transfers will be more inclined to consider playing for Illinois after the success of this season. With more size and players coming off the bench the Illini should be even better.
Nice info. Thank you.Recruiting info...
Two local 2024 prospects are guards Aaliyah Guyton (daughter of AJ Guyton) of Peoria and Kloe Froebe of Lincoln. Aaliyah has an offer from Shauna Green--among a number of Big Ten and SEC offers--per this article. Froebe was reported to be offered by the Fahey staff.
Kloe's highlights from last month's Peoria v. Lincoln matchup are here. Guyton is number 11 for Peoria, with red-blonde hair.
Leave the volleyball squad alone. Shauna will do well enough with her own recruiting.Parenthetically, the current volleyball roster has 3 listed at 6’4” and 3 listed at 6’3”. One of the players listed at 6’3” is probably closer to 6’5”. Another 6’4” player will be a freshman in the fall. Any basketball players among them?
any reason to think either of them might be interested in Illinois?Sakima Walker 6'5" post

Yeah, unless something unforeseen happens they will play here next year. Walker was gonna come here last year, but had enrollment issues. Our position coaches are really thought highly of by players.any reason to think either of them might be interested in Illinois?
They’ve both got cool sounding names.Sakima Walker 6'5" post

Well if not.. it's not meant to be, again.Will Walker graduate from her community college?
I think that she must have a covid year available because she is listed as a sophomore at Northwest Florida State: https://www.nwfraiders.com/sports/wbkb/2022-23/bios/walker_sakima_396cWalker will only have one year of eligibility - she played for 2 years at Rutgers before the junior college. I don’t know if she has a covid eligible year, but I don’t think so.
