New floor for Big 12 MBB/WBB
- Thread starter theshadow
- Start date
Need to get an ISU guy running it. Anytime an ISU player takes a shot just inside the 3 line, move it so it’s a 3. Other team? stretch it out a foot or two.
Does it take special training to clean during a timeout? Asking for a friend!!
Pro Move: Big 12 Conference changes the basketball court to look like a bank lobby or a training table to trick Darryn Peterson into showing up.
That seems like an awful lot of connections. Over/under on how long until there is a glitch?
P.S. On a related note, they had problems with scoreboards at Arizona. Lots of people, including journalists, couldn't see a stadium scoreboard from their seats.
Ugh was hoping they wouldn't put all the "XII" on the court again this year but appears nope....
Yeah such a bad design. Go back to the old court.
This was the best
This one isn’t bad either
They definitely should, and I'm guessing will, have a different court design every day to maximize having this type of court. I hope at some point they do one where each teams offensive end looks like their home floor with the Big 12 tournament logo at mid-court.
With all the slipping going on I pray that Lipsey survives without an injury.
As someone who stares at a large LED screen all day, I have to wonder if the muted gray color is actually a necessity. Shiny wood floors that reflect light sources is one thing, but making the floor the actual light source might make vibrant colored flooring impossible to play on.
This is definitely possible, but since last years court was gray/black with the XII design (on a standard wood court) I’ve assumed it is a design choice this year more than anything.
I am worried about this floor for the men's tournament. The guys will be running faster. If players are slipping at slower speeds, I can't imagine what may happen when running at faster speed
I give an "A" for Yormark trying something new. But sometimes being the guinea pig isn't ideal
I survived 4 years of drunken broomball without an injury. Our guys will be fine.
You think the internet bullied the Big 12 into changing the court design?
Brett Yormark, on Feb. 13:
"The earlier rounds will have one creative application. And then as you progress...you'll have a different court -- you know, 'creative presentation' if you will -- and then we'll have something more dramatic for the finals."
