Our Athletic Website
I think its about time we updated our Marauder Website,it looks really ordinary and some links dont work. Also from a recruiting standpoint it isnt of much help. For instance i can go on the Texas Longhorns site and it gives me information on what facillities they have and pictures aswell. Even the Queens Golden Gaels website displays its information well.

The Texas Longhorns website seems to be managed by CBS Interactive, they've probably got a whole web development team for their network of websites.

The Queens Gaels website is managed by SIDEARM sports http://athletics.internetcon sult.com
They also do the atheletic websites for Waterloo, Western, Windsor, Guelph, St. Lawrence, Toronto and coming soon... McMaster University (http://athletics.internetcon sult.c...locations.aspx)

So it should only be a matter of time! Contact SIDEARM (http://athletics.internetcon sult.com/contact.aspx) or ATH-REC (http://www-athrec.mcmaster.ca/aboutus/staff/index.htm) for more details.

You didn't seriously compare Mac's athletic website to the Texas Longhorns, did you? Their current athletics budget is $107.9 million annually.

Sit back and wait, the new site is going to be awesome. Maybe I"m a little biased!
