being different is good...BUT by being different you are going to get negative feedback from all the old ones that are scared of change..Change is bad!!!! A basketball court is hard wood..light tan with your teams colors in the lines..that is how it has always been...a football field is green with your teams colors in the end zone...that is how it has always been...may god strike you down if you change it.
I love Boise's blue turf...it is different..people notice it..I love the fact that the Ducks have numerous football Jerseys..It's different and cool to change stuff up. the ducks are great that they do that..it makes people want to watch just to see what they look like this week.
EVERYBODY knows what Tennessee will look like..no excitement and it is true..The most excitement Tennessee has had in years was last halloween with the Black Jerseys..it was all over ESPN and FOX..people noticed the change and it made news ...BUT as much as I think the Oregon B Ball court is ugly as hell....if it works for them...so be it.
you know people are going to tune in to watch just to see the court...and when people see the court..they are going to see the what is on the court playing.
A court won't keep anyone tuned in. People will see an ugly assed court with a bad to mediocre team playing on it and they will change the channel after the rubbernecking ceases to amuse them.
Recruits liked the football uniforms. Recruits will like the court. We just signed a top rated, 5 star star basketball recruit who said in an interview I saw he loved the court. That's all that matters. I really just don't care what anyone else thinks about them.
