Great ideas: folding RSS and Twitter feeds into one location.
And it's good to see an MU person behind the scenes at the IT company.

But somehow I get OVERSTIMULATED with the updated feeds. To me, a huge MU fan, it's like watching the stock market reports 24/7/365.

I need a break... ugh

How can someone be behind the scenes at a 2 person company?  Is that like being the pitcher?

You may want to add a search for the hashtag #mubb for Twitter, which is Marquette University Basketball, as well as maybe including all posts from @muathletics which is the Athletic Department's account.

But otherwise, looks good. The scrolling stories on the news page are nice. Good start to the site, here's hoping it continues to grow :)

I added the items you recommended. I also added a section devoted to player tweets. Thank you for your suggestion brewcity77.
