Problems with searching for recruiting info on Scout.com

[daytonflyerfan]

Looks like www.Scout.com is being redirected to http://www.foxsportsnext.com. I don't really like the new website, I'm having a lot of difficulty searching for recruiting info. on players.

For example, Dayshon Smith just committed to Dayton yesterday, but I can't find out how many stars Scout gave him/what his recruiting rating is because I can't find him on the new site.

If anybody can find Smith's info. I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Hahah. Love their extensive coverage on URI, if you can find it. Big blank page.

I didn't think their message board and site could get worse... That's what happens when Fox takes over.

Trainwreck of a redesign!

I don't know, I really don't like http://www.foxsportsnext.com. Very hard to use/navigate around that site. Very hard to find player info. I have given up trying to find Dayshon Smith. I don't know, I really don't like the Scout site redesign. I'm very glad the administrators decided to not use scout.com for the new URI forum.

The posters on Friar Talk are complaining about the redesign too.

ATP, maybe now is not the time to gloat.

Let's not forget that for the better part of a year we've been leveraging a crappy site that frequently crashed.

Those in glass houses should not thrown stones.

Our old site was a joke over the last month. Let's not forget that.

i went back to the old URI site and found the info on Dayshon Smith. He got 3 stars from Scout.

I sure hope http://www.foxsportsnext.com continues redesigning their site to make it more user friendly, and also so that the site has more team information on it. Oh well, it will be interesting to see what happens with that site.

Nice get, Daytonflyerffan! Look forward to watching Smit and Matthews battle in the future!

Didn't last long... apparently the rebranding didn't work, and- for now- the old sites will be coming back very soon.

Wow really? I haven't been on scout in a few days.

The site looks like it went live while under construction. Either way, you take Fox's money and you'll get the Fox product.

They still have their old board running alongside the new board which basically does not work at all.

the new scout board is terrible. hard to navigate. rivals is much better.

Interesting read on the epic fail that was the attempt to rebrand Scout.
