New Liberty Sports Website Design - Not Liking it

I'm not sure why they changed it from a great single page (one stop shopping) format to some kind of embedded menu, but I sure don't care for the new design of the sports website? Seems like I have to hunt and peck to find things that were easily accessible. Any other thoughts?

I really like the redesign. The old layout is great for a business with minimal traffic, but from the score ticker up top to the full screen article images, this is a massive upgrade. I feel like the menus are considerably more accessible and that it will appeal greatly to recruits and new fans alike.

I have little issues with the new site but overall it is a HUGE upgrade!

Looks like it was designed to be more user friendly for mobile devices.

It's built more for mobile responsiveness, eventhough they're are some bugs that need to be worked out - IMO.

I like it.

It certainly seems fresher and in line with where web design has headed the past few years. I'm OK with it even though I rarely access it on a mobile device. Perhaps now I will do so more often with the new stylesheet.

This surprises me. I figured you'd be all mobile devices

I generally hate change, but I LOVE the new look. :clapping

Well I have a guess as to who you didn't vote for in 2008.

Not when hitting the official site.

At flames fest today, pulled up the site on mobile. Got right to the roster, easy sort by name or number. Current pictures with the new SBIGOUTH logo on the jersey. Also players came out in blue game jerseys with name plates on the back.

This is normally what I get when I link to the website, this is actually the link from Liberty's own WBB facebook page. If someone knows anyone at the university who is in charge of the new website design, maybe you could forward this to them. Just not really impressed with the functionality of the page. Lots of bugs.

It's a fumble!!! Oops, this probably isn't the page you wanted.
Try Searching for something else.

I've tried to post a screenshot and link to error message but not having much success. Don't do forums a great deal. Sorry

I tried looking up the football schedule on my iPhone. Complete waste of time. The image was too wide and aspect unable to be changed or scrolled horizontally. It bounced up and down and then froze.
