Confusing new KSU athletic website

Post by ToledoCat#3 » February 18th, 2024, 11:25 am

Apparently, KSU or someone else decided to overhaul the KSU Athletic's website.

To me, the new look is confusing and heavy on video vs print.

I've always thought the KSU sports website was lacking in coherence and flow. The new version does nothing to make me think differently.

Perhaps it's just my old age and reluctance to change.

I agree totally. It's very hard to navigate now. Hard to get to the actual stories.

Glad I'm not the only fan who's not a fan of the new website. Hopefully, it'll get improved.

To me a clear distinction between text and video is necessary.

And, a user should be about to find the info about teams easier than guessing that a click on three unidentified lines at the top of the site is the place to find team info.

I like to read stories and not watch a video. So many sites are flooded with vid-ads.

I am old and definitely not a fan of the look and functionality of the K-State website. It looks like it was designed by the same folks that do "Bing".
