The Illini women’s basketball team has an NIL based fan club. For $19.99 per month, or $199.99 per year, one gets some sort of insider status, special access to photos and team messages. Does the women’s volleyball team have a similar club or is one planned? I really like this idea. Illinois has had a Networkers fan group for years (of which I belong), but maybe it is time to expand this due to the era of NIL. It is easier to have some sort of monthly contribution than to have to contribute a huge chunk of money in one fail swoop. I will say that I have enjoyed getting to know Chris Tamas through membership in the Networkers group. However, Networkers seems to be more for local Illini volleyball fans than for those who live further away. I wish I had the finances to begin a fund to build an Olympic sports (volleyball, men's/womens gymnastics, and wrestling) facility. I love Huff Gym, but I also realize its limitations.

With the coaches at TC , anyone want to do any Insta sleuthing in Coach Tamas account to see what 2025 he is following?

If anyone plans to attend the home match next Saturday (March 4), will you please share updates on the team or a recap of the match? Thanks, in advance.

Gabby Dean is playing TC with Kiva 18s. It appears their team swept pool play (3-0) on opening day.

A fee would be Natalie Wardlow, Ryan Hunter, Georgia Watson. Triangle is supposed to have a 2025 OPP who is top of the class. Maybe we can get the Triangle Pipeline working.

To: UofI Athletic Dept, UofI Volleyball Coaches For the only Illini home spring volleyball match, consider streaming the match on Facebook...no announcers needed. Feed your fans !!! I don't have any social media accounts, otherwise I'd consider trying to stream it if there were demand. Hmm, the Illini Networkers do have a Facebook account though... I don't know who has access to it and whether they'd share login info for the sake of streaming it. Maybe reaching out to the coaches or DOVO would be the better route.

Maybe if they hear from enough of us, they will broadcast it.

Just spent a few minutes (too many) in the "2023 Transfer Portal Tea" thread thinking I might learn something about potential transfers. Learned nothing other than how many ways one person can insult another person. It is unbelievable how posters in other threads treat each other. This is a big thanks to everyone on this thread for civilized behavior.
