New Floor at Gampel

Is it the floor from New Orleans? They get first bid on it. Or is it just refinished?

 

[Outside Shot]

Reminds me of Minnesota T-Wolves

I prefer the older, friendlier, more huggable Jonathan.

Just Sayin.

I'm guessing that it's not done and some kind of graphic will be going in the lane?

 

[huskiemaniac]

I love it!

Maybe the conference logo like on the old floor. It could use a splash of color.

It definitely is not done yet. There are no arcs under the baskets for in secondary defender blocking foul.

Floor looks great...can't wait to see it when it is finished. 5 more months...!

Nice, very nice!

Doesn't look like the UCONN on the sides is done either.

On the near sideline, it is hard to see, buy you can make out UConn and after that, you really have to look hard, but I can just make out lines for the letters to spell out "Huskies".

Hope they put a little color in the lane, though I like the darker wood tones between the lane and the arc.

The floor is definitely a work in progress. I am getting used to the new Huskies image. A little attitude isn't a bad thing. Heck, even the Fighting 'Artichoke has an attitude. And it is an artichoke for crying out loud. I have never seen an artichoke show any emotion at all.

When the new 'real big east conference' comes up with a snappy logo? like a pix of an orphan?

 

[Vowelguy]

How soon until a player hits the deck and someone blames it on the new floor?

You need to be more observant. We used to be more friendly...

...but we've always been a bit prickly. We are thistles, you know!

Just be happy we aren't those damn veggies from Delta State University...

...the dreaded Fighting Okra!

Floor looks fine, but I'm still not wild about the new logo. I agree with Outside Shot, I also thought it looked a lot like the MN Timberwolves logo. Now that the floor is being redone, how about the roof? Needs more than duct tape to fix the tears.

Someone on Facebook thinks that this is what it is supposed to end up like. If so the lane stays pretty bland. As I look at this rendition, it can't be 100% correct as it does not have the arc in the lane.

Alumni court? That's terrible

Alumni court? That's terrible

That's what the court is right now, so that's actually not a change. Doesn't make it any less boring, but, unfortunately, that's been the name for a while.
