Long Beach State Sports : Re: Doing the small things right...

Matt, you are right. They can not and have not since I started coming to University events in the 1970’s. Incompetence spans decades. Here is a tip - put the dates you want rosters and schedules made public in you calendar and make them aware to the staff and make sure they do not miss the dates. Electronic calendars span years. It is too simple, but I do not think anything will change.

This is a complaint that spans several AD's. Why in the heck can't the athletic administration do the small things right?

Examples:

1. Why aren't the new rosters updated on the website for all sports? I follow other colleges and they have them. How come no pictures of the new basketball players. Other colleges manage it. Why is the soccer roster still last years when their have their first game coming up?

2. Why did half of the "Capital Projects" disappear from the website? Why is there someone that no longer works for LBSU listed as the main contact for donations for capital projects?

Is this a serious university when it comes to athletics or not. It's embarrassing. At some point you have to start getting shit right.

I purchased season tickets for basketball, but this year I refuse to donate additional dollars until the school gives me a reason. Zero posted benefits for donors, consistently don't get easy things done correctly. I'm essentially done unless there is a major change in the operation.

Love LBSU, but sick of being part of a ridiculously small group of donors for a dysfunctional athletic program. I can have way more fun spending money and energy elsewhere.
