The one thing you could always count on with Flash Results at the NCAA's was top quality. Not anymore, apparently. I felt like I took a trip back to 2003 trying to navigate through the clunky interface, horribly late updating in the field events and no splits in the distance races.

Were they bought out by somebody? That's a serious question.

Compare these two platforms:

What? The new interface seems pretty good.

Better than 2012?

What were the Women's 10K splits? Men's 800 splits?

Maybe I'm missing something.

(You have to click "heat data" to see splits.)

And also hit the refresh button. Duh.

Well, the live updates on the field events still sucked and were way behind, especially in the Decathlon. I may be the only one that cares about that.

I hate that you can't see the full throws progression. If you click on the field series button it only shows you flight 1 or 2 not a combined for the finals. Total bush league. And for those of us in the middle of nowhere with Podunk cable companies that don't support Espn3, having good results is a must.

If anything, I've been having a hard time trying to view the official results for the multis, as the timers seem to have forgotten to update them as the events progressed.

And isn't the javelin and TJ supposed to be going on right now? I'm not seeing anything being posted about on the live result pages for those events, which state they were to start at 12:30pm PST

The results were working great for me this morning in the Long Jump. My buddy tells me that they are just starting to warm up for the Hep Javelin at 1;30 PST

I just open two browsers and split the screen. Works great. I've been following Hep today, too, and it's been awesome. Really fast refresh! Try Google Chrome maybe?
