Clintau24 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I always liked how TCU used the red on the older football uniforms. I like how it's used here. I wish it would be used as a minor detail more "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFW2012 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I think it's great that they went with something unique with the Frog skin but still appear to have kept it subtle enough that it's not outrageous. The red 3-pt lines are fine by me. The arena is plastered in purple between the floor and all the seats (and fans since that's the primary color). All the video boards will likely constantly be displaying purple backgrounds, so a couple red lines will be fine. I look forward to seeing a shot of the floor from the sideline. The TCU logo looks interesting with the Frog skin design but I can't tell much from this photo. The two things I'm not sure about is whether I like the frog skin pattern on the TCU logo or the font/design of the "Walsh Family Court" marks. One other thing I noticed has little to do with the floor itself, but I always notice it with facilities that have one primary color: there are a bunch of different shades of purple in that arena––the floor, 3 different shades of purple in 3 different types of seats (floor seats, lower level seats, and bowl seats), and the padding on the goal. It could get out of hand depending on how they use the video boards and how well the purple on their home white uniforms match the court (also any signage or banners). It will probably not be noticeable to most, but it probably will annoy me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clintau24 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I'm really wanting to see a good full court shot. The photos from the opening/ribbon cutting blurred out the details. This last one shows it well. "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WavePunter Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Yeah, the red lines are fine by me.. I don't see how they clutter it up at all, considering the lines have to be there anyway. The color of something doesn't make it any more or less cluttered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShinyHubCaps Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Lest anyone says we complain about anything that's new... I really, really like this.I'm all for ambitious designs if they make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Lest anyone says we complain about anything that's new... I really, really like this.I'm all for ambitious designs if they make sense.Holy cow I haven't seen you on here for YEARS.Yeah I'm really loving this. The scales are subtle and the black and purple off colored key is really neat too. The red accents are also minimal and stand out on a court that's purple and greyscale. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittSmith_95 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 It's sleek, modern and awesome!This is how you do stuff like this: Subtly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Are there any full overhead shots of this? A quick Google image search wasn't helpful. It's hard to tell exactly what the pattern looks like.

DFW2012 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Are there any full overhead shots of this? A quick Google image search wasn't helpful. It's hard to tell exactly what the pattern looks like.Still waiting, as far as I can tell. The facility grand opening is December 15 with the first game December 20. We may have to wait until those dates now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFW2012 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 It's hard to tell exactly what this floor looks like because they have only been sending out pictures taken with what appears to be Instagram filters. Generally, though, under he big lights it seems the pattern will be subtle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DFW2012 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Taken when all the arena lights are on:Par the associate AD, Nike helped TCU with the design of the frog skin overlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29texan Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 Well, now that we can finally see a game on tv (TCU is playing West Virginia right now on ESPN2), we can see how it looks on the tube and... the frog skin court and paint is subtle but still very noticeable at the same time. Not bad.Our basketball uniforms, however, are boring as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clintau24 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Tuned in after seeing your comment. It came out nicely. I really like the red arch. TCU could really use that red more and I wouldn't complain. The overall wood stain looks a bit light for my liking, but the entire design is pretty nice. "I believe in Auburn and love it!"
