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.

ESPN openly mocked our black jerseys calling them horrendous and ugly - similar to what they say about a lot of Oregon's antics - except worse since our jerseys actually looked fine - Oregon's colors are just always awful no matter what combo they use.

Not sure that I want that.

Nike isn't marketing their collegiate football/athletic products to middle aged pundits and forums posters. The targeted demographic loves Oregon's football jerseys and facilities.

This. Several UO recruits have said that the uniforms were one of the things that caught their eyes about our program.

Does your average middle aged male college football fan like Oregon's uniforms? Absolutely not.

Does your average 5-star high school recruit like them? Definitely.

Which one matters more?

I'm a college student, not a middle aged man. And our black Halloween jerseys were still terrible. Oregon's uniforms wouldn't be so nasty if their primary and secondary colors weren't disgusting.

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.

I agree, green and yellow aren't the best of combinations. With that said, they've changed the tone of the green to a forest/military esque green, and practically eliminated yellow from the jersey combinations all together.

I appreciated the addition of black and steel. Nope, neither is one of the school colors(Should be... now) but the jerseys look that much better because of them.

I like their jerseys that don't include any green or yellow. All whites, blacks or that gray look pretty good.

Every team except Oregon and Boise and their smurf turf gets attention by being good and winning games, you don't have to embarrass yourselves with stupid shiz like this to get people's attention.

i liked oregon's green unis that were paired with the yellow helmets and pants back in the 90s. imo they should wear something like those only with their 'oakley o" logo they now use. those old ones were both unique and consistent, unlike the one trillion combos they trot out there today.

we get it, it is about the recruits. but this board isn't about oregon's potential recruits, so spare us the same spill every time someone has an opinion about your team's ugly combos.

Can't say that I like the court design. I like the idea of having some kind of different, large graphic on the court. But, this graphic just looks bad, imo.

Oh well. The rest of the arena is top notch. Hopefully, they can switch out the graphic without too much cost.

They're in transition. Altman didn't have time to bolster the roster after he was hired and Kent left the personnel situation in shambles.

They landed a decent class. Picked up Jabari Brown.

Still going to be a young team. But, you never know. Not sure what more anyone could have expected right out of the gate.

I grew up in rural Oregon -- Land of mullets, men with mustaches, women in over sized neon sweatshirts and peg leg jeans...and Tonya Harding. This bb court makes sense to me.

Clearly the glare isn't due to a gimmick, though. Simply an issue of a glossy floor that would be better suited without the gloss

It's a really bad attempt to draw attention to the program. Have a normal court like everyone else and earn attention by winning games. That's my take.

I had the displeasure of seeing that court on my TV as I was flipping through channels. It looks like a giant sick bird took a **** right in the middle if it.

Are you blind, or just slow? It's obviously Π-A-Π (Pi-A-Pi). Where do you get TWAT from ΠAΠ? Do you know what Pi is?

(It's supposed to represent Matt, Phil Knight's son, for whom the Arena is named after).
