Hope to see more of Dolan, Allen and Wallace. they need to develop for 2025 season when our 7 SRs are gone. Hope Wallace's injury is not too bad.

Loved that Marquette game as on B10 network. Wish more of them were.
I only count 5 Sr or 5th Dolan so, Wallace fr, Brown Haggar so, Bolin Jr, Allen so that's 5 of top 10 not 7 of 8

Yeah only losing 5 players. I also will never get fans constantly worry about the following season in the middle of the current season lol
Am I exaggerating in saying that I believe Coach Green can turn us into consistent Top 10 program. I can’t believe more students don’t come to these games. I am driving down for two games. I wish there were more Saturday games!

Loved seeing some subs get some action and points. Were those Smith and Zenere’s first points?
I believe Smith if given the time to adapt to the speed of the game,she can be way more than serviceable. She can move, has pretty good awareness,but a less reaction time but she can play...6 rebounds means she is active.. ,The Zenere kid looks aware as well..My team spirit player Cori had a rough night but the future looks good.

I guess Josh waited until the ink was dry on the '25 class. I wonder what the buyout is on this. She's working her way into discussions with more established programs. Hopefully in a couple years we're trying to figure out how to keep her from being poached.

Contract Extension for Green
Whoa there,just like with Underwood this team Was Ab sleeping giant but if we get maybe one or two more portal contributions the ILL-INI can easily be Iowa, Indiana,or Ohio State in a flash..I'm mad we got players at Duke,LSU,TXAM,ICONN,and others from Illinois.That can change with this year or next...

She’s paid like a top 10 coach. She recruits like a top 10 program. She wins. Not exaggerating at all.

She’s just as fiery and competitive as BU….y'all just don’t see that side as often.

Thanks! I have seen her coaching demeanor. I go to the games in Evanston and have been impressed .
I do enjoy being able get section A seats for $20. But would be much happier to see a sold out stadium.

Why isn't the 5 star McDonalds all American freshman playing? (Berry Wallace). Has Illinois Women's team ever had this good of a recruit ? She's had 3 minutes total playing time in 3 games. Mainly on the bench watching the sizzling (13-49) FG shooting combo of Cook/Bryant. She'll be gone by Christmas so she can actually play somewhere.
I read that Berry Wallace is hurt.

Before the start of the game, Wallace came onto the floor dressed in street clothes with what appeared to be a cast on her shooting hand.
After the win against the Golden Eagles, Green addressed the media on Wallace’s injury. “We don’t have an exact timeline right now,”

My guess is that it has something to do with her broken shooting hand.
