A deep dive into each Illini’s season.
Now that Illinois’ season is officially over following a second-round loss to Iowa in the Big Ten Tournament, we are able to really look at how each Illini performed this season — and where they can go from here.
We’ll go by class through Illinois’ rotation players, starting with freshman Alan Griffin and ending with four-year senior Aaron Jordan.
Feel free to participate in the comments with your thoughts on how the players did and how they can fit into Brad Underwood’s program at Illinois.
