That floor may look good in person but on TV it looks like peeling paint.

TCU has a pretty cool court.

I've seen a preview of JMU's new one at the new arena and I already hate it.

Watching Baylor (especially with the Nike fluorescent colors) play Oregon at Oregon is just more than most people's eyes can take.

Washington State has the Seattle Space Needle in its design.


That's funny. I had to check, and it's true. WSU reportedly wanted this court design to be representative of its branch campuses in Everett, Vancouver, the Tri-Cities, and Spokane. That's awesome, very Wazzu.
