Maybe have a quick schedule tab located at the top by the member button. I know that is pure lazy on my part, but sometimes I like to only hit one site.

Thanks for the suggestion Kineticz!  We will definitely have that option soon.  We are still trying to figure out how to add additional tabs.  Sad we know, but none of us are computer guys!

What about maybe getting like a picture sharing section, it'd be neat to share everybody's different IU pics and events....just a thought lol

Maybe a "check in" feature, to document what games you attended.

Can we get a Forums, membersm pickem, button etc at the bottom of the page. That would be helpful, I don't like having to go back to the top always. Maybe its there and I just keep over lookin it. Let me know thanks.

Is the pick ems section down or somethin? It says I don't have access to pick ems...or is that what my "senior member" status is....too old to view it? Hahaha

hmmm... I think you might actually be on to something. Need to check that since I changed everyone's titles! Maybe you just need to be a VIP and then you don't have anything to worry about lol

You have to be in the top 3 to access that. Sorry man! Haha just playing but mine works fine as of now. But VIP is the way to roll!

Appreciate the kind words. Judging from the 770+ members in the first 40 days, I'd say you aren't alone in that assessment. Now the newbies just have to pop that first post cherry and they'll be golden. CoachMayhew didn't want to post back in the day... now we can't keep him off the boards lol

If you would follow my twitter you would know I talk plenty! Just follow now cause I'm VIP! I talk too much ask my wife. This place is like MySpace in 2006, just sayin. And believe it or not I have more friends on here than I do FaceBook. I do not have a facebook, Zuckerberg has enough $$ he does not need me to sign up!

Once ya get started having intelligent conversation with people that have common sense it's hard NOT to post, here, nobody has to put up with dumb ass UK/Purdue fans that can't be proven wrong, or that are so closed minded you wanna ***** slap em just for breathing the same air as you haha

Is there a way to make the site more viewable from a mobile devise? Pretty much only use a computer at work and site as almost impossible to use on a phone.
