Check out the NCAA.com site for wrestling and it is frustrating. Articles are old. Not kept up to date.

Their Basketball site is apparently updated daily - maybe even more than that.

They don't seem to care about wrestling. Not sure about other "minor sports" as I don't follow them.

Any way to push these jokers to do a better job?

The only way to get them to "care" would be if their job depended on it, or keeping the site current made them money.

Site does a couple stories a week. Recaps, previews, feature. I’ve noticed the main scroll doesn’t always update with the most recent story, but Shannon Scovel does a fine job - remember, that is a general information type of site. Our sport as a whole doesn’t mandate NCAA stats, so we don’t provide a score API like most of the team sports do. I wouldn’t think any fan of any niche sport would go to their site for breaking news - that’s what sites like this are for.
I’ll often include the features in my newsletter - but if anyone expects them to provide things our sport doesn’t provide ourselves already, you need to reset your expectations of what their .com is.

Insert catchy tagline here.

I used to work for a particular sales company…….   We sold a ton of products.  One of which was the lion’s share of our revenue.   That products info / stats / specs were updated constantly.   The others rarely.   Grow the sport.   Money matters imo.

“Grow the sport”

I think everyone has a desire to grow the sport, unfortunately those in place to do so don’t know how to.
