DaytonBlue 42 Posted March 21, 2013 Thought I'd start a new thread since these are proposed for next season. http://sports.yahoo....cGFnZQ--;_ylv=3proposed FIU courts, per tweet from head coach 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slapshot 793 Posted March 21, 2013 Stupid. It's a basketball court, not a billboard. The lines would have to be obnoxiously wide like the photo in order to see them.One team pushes the envelope, twenty other teams want to copy and break it. And for some reason, it started with the Oregon court, which might be nice to look at, but all the functionality is thrown out because you can't see the lines due to the glare or contrast. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St Louis Cardinals 289 Posted March 21, 2013 At least the oregon court looks cool. these look terrible 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dfwabel 4,155 Posted March 21, 2013 1- They look more like doormats.2- Why is the 3PT line at 19'9'? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vmd9 100 Posted March 22, 2013 Honestly the "beach" design has potential. Drop the water at the top and it would be very cool. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digby 6,617 Posted March 22, 2013 Ugh, how long before the first trompe l'oeil for a 3D effect for the TV cameras? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lights Out 4,907 Posted March 22, 2013 Those designs are beyond corny, but a part of me is really intrigued to see how either design works in reality. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thespleenenator 71 Posted March 22, 2013 I love the first one only because it's FIU. It's so flashy and outrageous it perfectly fits a school in Miami, particularly as one as modern as FIU. The second one is just too corny. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay_Mellowed 420 Posted March 22, 2013 FIU could have it. . . . .as a practice court. As a real game court, that would be horrible, as well as responsible for another troubling trend. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg_Fryman 24 Posted March 22, 2013 That does seem a little over the top I actually like some of the more out there courts in the MWC and PAC12 but this is taking it to a whole other disturbing level. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee Noire 627 Posted March 22, 2013 Looking at these I want to coin the term "postcard court." The newest trend in college basketball. *sigh* 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

St Louis Cardinals 289 Posted March 22, 2013 this will be FIU's court next season according to the athletic director. his idea to attract recruits 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billy B 154 Posted March 22, 2013 I guess Isiah Thomas didn't attract recruits as well as they hoped...And I think VCU could definitely use a new logo. I like their current uniforms, but their logo always seemed kind of small-time to me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
henburg 1,537 Posted March 22, 2013 Nothing makes me want to play for FIU more than a giant picture of the beach as the court . Seriously though, it's getting pretty ridiculous. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee Noire 627 Posted March 22, 2013 Furthermore, if they MUST do this, why did they choose the the Corona version? This isn't saying much but the skyline was better. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
