Dear SportsFacts reader:
It's not every day that I get to tell a customer that I'm giving them something new, better – AND free. But that's exactly what's in store for you.
Come August 1, when you point your browser to Illini SportsFacts, you'll be going to IlliniHQ.com – the biggest and best Illini site anywhere on the web. You'll have all the great News-Gazette reporters and analysts you know so well – Tate, Klee, Asmussen, Rossow and others, but you'll also have the unparalleled local broadcast team of WDWS-Radio, the voice of the Fighting Illini – with Brian Barnhart, Jim Turpin, Steve Kelly and more.
And it's all free. You've made your last SportsFacts payment.
I don't want to give away any more surprises, but I wanted our loyal SportsFacts customers to be the very first to hear this good news.
IlliniHQ.com debuts publicly August 1 – just in time for Camp Rantoul. But you'll be getting to take an early peak prior to launch. Be sure to tell us what you think, what you need and what we can do differently. We'll be adding new features all the time.
Go Illini!

P.S. Look for access to the "illiniboard" right on the site!
