I need to redesign a link and text heavy dashboard to make it more useable and aesthetically pleasing. The existing page looks like this:
As you can see, it's basically a dump of links to other reports, with a little bit of grouping and some preview of the aggregated data. I think this is hard to use because it's not clear what all of the links do, and it's unattractive and just plain overwhelming with text.
What would be a better way to lay this out to show some useful dashboard type data and provide intuitive drill down for more reports and charts?

If you are working on a re-design I would create a sitemap of the site to determine the hierarchy effectively. There is too much text there and it needs to be dialed down. Even if you remove the links you will be facing an issue with ""how many clicks does it take". If it takes a visitor, if I recall from an article I read many years ago, more then three clicks then your site should be re-factored.
You need to ask your client if they are ok with changing the overall site. Since you do not have the full site displayed and are asking for advise I would look into testing an accordion. Personally I wouldn't have the team stats in that manner. It would make great site fill, such as the top players in a related area but you shouldn't have to display all those counts like that in an area that will confuse or draw from the navigation.
