Is this site dead?

When it comes to discussion of Women's sports this site is DEAD! Suggest Osceola spice things up or this entire site is in trouble.
Well. At least this board has a womens sports site. Bob gives us news others do not. I still do Warchant too so that mix helps.

It's the off-season. Traffic will pick up once the games start.
 
Both soccer and softball coaches keep things very very tight so not much gossip or discussion gets out. Case in point, softball has two top transfer targets in on visits and not one damn word leaks. Have no idea how visits really went or if we are even being considered, etc. And these internet web sites (all of them without exception) have no concept of actually breaking any news. First they’re afraid of upsetting the coaches (they shouldn’t be) and second, they just don’t know how to do it. Laughable that college coaches “close” scrimmages and the internet sites rarely have any contributions about what went on. Over 100 people are at these “closed” football scrimmages for example. Yet the sites don’t give you any real insight. Just the way it is now.

No one wants to be "wrong" and looking foolish doing it. They also might lose what access they do have - so there's that.
 
Access is way overrated. All access means is that you get to hear what the coach wants you to hear. That's it. I understand why the web sites are so timid, but it doesn't make their attitude right. All the inter web team sports sites lack aggression because they are fearful of upsetting the coaches. Thus--no real news comes out until the coaches decide to release it...
