Pomona Athletic Department

Let start the new school year by pressuring the A.D. to clean up their act. I think we can reach a wider audience through the Poly Post. Here's a link to an article... Hopefully we can get them to at least upgrade their website.

While we are ranting on this discussion group do you think they are getting the message at the Athletic Department? Has anyone actually tried to get them to listen to the student's, alumni, and booster's concerns about their incompetence? I feel like they are blissfully going about their job as if they were hot shit. It's embarrassing even looking at that amateur creation they call their website and it pisses me off that after last year's hustle by our basketball team, the site has not changed a bit. We should really organize a letter writing campaign before the we get too far along this new academic year.

we have somewhat give up. some of us talk to people but there not much we can do. i mean we complain all we want this board. members of the athlethic department have read this board and knows our unhappiness but there not going to do much. this is not division I and they really dont want to spend that much money anyways

seaprt, what exactly do you have in mind? Should we start a circulation of letters and signature of alumni/students/faculty/community to the school AD? I hear you on getting some respect for our student athletes.

Are we sure they're reading this board? I realize we're not a div 1 school and may not have a huge budget, but it's safe to say we have the worst website in the CCAA as well as possibly all of division 2. I can challenge anyone to find a site worse than ours. It's amateurish, uninformative, and now that we're closing into the basketball season, not worthy of Bronco athletes. After last year's amazing run to the finals, they truly deserve better. I hope the A.D. is aware of their shortcomings and is listening to the concerns that we have.

As far as voicing our concerns to them, I would just like them to acknowledge the concerns posted on this board and join in on the discussion. Has anyone tried e-mailing the director links to this board?

The graphic layout of the site is a vast improvement. However, so far the content is the same and it remains to be seen if they are committed to providing in-depth, useful and timely information. They've got a good framework and I hope they build up on it. In the meantime, we should keep voicing our concerns on this board to help them further improve the website.

It would also be nice for them to hire a photographer for the games. All the pictures on the news stories so far are head shot of the athletes.

Who do you think you are coming on here ripping the CPP Athletic Dept! Although i do agree with most of what you're saying.. you have to earn the right to come into my house and talk crap about CPP. Make some quality posts first and then you will earn some credibility and just maybe we will listen... C'monn son!
