Good Morning Panthers fans. I'm writing to let you know about a new Milwaukee basketball website we launched recently: uwmupdate.com. It's powered by StatSheet.com and I'm the editor. We offer up article game recaps, previews, game notes, recap notes, Conference Player of the Week, NCAA Player of the Week, etc. We have more article types under development now (including our own tournament seeding predictions) and would love to hear from you about how our site could be better. Here is an example of one of our Recap Notes: uwmupdate.com/wisconsin-milwaukee-basketball/recap-notes/milwaukee-vs-youngstown-state-recap-notes-2We also have a mobile apps for Android and Apple, as well as Twitter and Facebook pages. Anyway, we are very interested in your feedback. We've got a lot of new features coming in the next few weeks so stay tuned! -Colin editor@uwmupdate.com or you can PM me here

We know all about it. We were laughing the other day when, despite owning the #1 seed on the conference tournament and the automatic NIT bid to go with it, you had us playing in the CIT.

Yet you still see us as a CIT Team. With the #1 Seed in the HL Tournament came with it an Auto NIT Bid if we don't go to the NCAA

We are still working on our StatSeed projections and will have that corrected soon. Thanks for your feedback!

You might also correct the Horizon League standings on your page. Currently, it has CSU at 14-5 and in first place. We only play 18 league games and Milwaukee finished in a first place tie with CSU and Butler at 13-5 with the #1 overall seed, not the #2 seed.

Thanks for the support. We just launched our network of sites in November so we are still in 'beta versions' and will definitely have to work out a few bugs. Thanks for the heads-up on the conference standings, we will get those fixed too.

Sorry Colin, I didn't realize I was being disrespectful.

Love the site Colin! Keep up the good work! (aside from the few bugs you'll work out as you go along) It's really cool to see all these advanced statistics organized on a per team basis. I check out the site before and after every Milwaukee game!

Overall I like this site. I'm big into crunching the numbers and I like how up to date this is for literally EVERY TEAM!

Yep, we have a separate site for every D1 basketball team, and our article content is computer automated so that we can provide the exact same content for each team regardless of its record.
