Title: Rekindling the previously kindled NEW COURT DESIGN discussion
Post by: kougar24 on February 08, 2010, 04:25:51 PM
Because I'm bored and jones'n for some photoshop ack-shee-ohn. And yes, the midcourt logo is very much a ripoff of Houston's old logo. Just throwing stuff out there.

Def like the Serpantine font.  

Purple sidelines and baselines  "Wildcats" in serpintine font on the baseline: white outlined in black.
Purple Keys with the Big 12 Logo.
Purple Powercat outlined in white and black at center court.  
Change the kansas state at center court with K-STATE in serpintine font purple with white and black outlines
center the mid court logo.
"Doom" octagon where the briggs logos are at now.

But make it black and small. None of that gigantic crap taking up the whole court. No text, either.  

Put "Kansas State University" on one side, and "Every Man a Wildcat" on the other. I'm usually against saying the whole name of the university, but it would add symmetry to the sides. Not sure what to put in the lanes, but that's not it. Not your best work, dude. May as well put Chester the Cheetah out there with some stop signs.

Agree with Dax kinda. Have some pressure sensitive tiles that light up when the player steps on them and then the light gradually fades once the pressure is taken off. They had something like this on Extreme Home Makeover once.

Don't really care for this version either. Make the powercat in the middle smaller and fit it in the mid court circle. Get rid of the wildcats on the baselines. Replace the Doom signs with Tex Winters or Jack Hartman's signatures. Move the Doom signs back to the lanes.

So, I put a tiny powercat inside the midcourt circle, and as I suspected, it looks so Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) I'm not going to waste time uploading it.

... No text, either. 

Put "Kansas State University" on one side, and "Every Man a Wildcat" on the other. I'm usually against saying the whole name of the university, but it would add symmetry to the sides.

Sorry ew, didn't see that it was you who posted this. I started reading these terrible suggestions and passed over it quickly without a second thought.

Right, cause putting the PAKR head and OOD's everywhere was AWESOME. Add your patented zubaz and we're all set.

Take this court.

1. Change the sideline script to "EVERYMAN A WILDCAT"
2. outline the powercat in the middle in white.
3. have the doom octagons be white and purple like the real thing
4. get rid of the multicolored wooden floor make the whole court the darker "deeper stained" look
5. outline the k-state in white
6. make all on the court lines white and outline the sidelines and baselines in white.
7. All the baseline and sideline text should be italicized and outlined in gray
8. Add Big 12 logo to the key

Gross, I'm not going to do any of that. The court with the giant powercat--you know, like the one we have now--looks awful. The above was made to illustrate that.

Instead of the Wildcat head being in a circle in the middle, put the Wildcat head in an octagon-shape at center court.

And why is "Every Man a Wildcat" upside down. put that right side up in front of the K-State bench 'in bounds.'

Because I'm bored and jones'n for some photoshop ack-shee-ohn. And yes, the midcourt logo is very much a ripoff of Houston's old logo. Just throwing stuff out there.

It may be a joke to name the court after him, I don't know.  I was asking if you really didn't know who he is.  Just for clarification, Tex Winter should probably be our most well known coach. He was here in the 50s and 60s.  He essentially created the modern triangle offense and assisted Phil Jackson when Michael Jordan was with the Bulls and followed him to the Lakers.

Anti-powercatters,

One of our legal assistants' kids' school had "college day" last week in which they could wear any college gear they wanted rather than their school uniforms.  Her 2 kids knew nothing about colleges/sports.  They were given a handout to show their parents what was up.  The handout had the KSU, ku and WSU logos on them.  She asked the boys which school's gear they wanted to wear.

They picked KSU.  Why?  The Powercat reminded them of the Transformers logo. 

So there's that...

One of our legal assistants' kids' school had "college day" last week in which they could wear any college gear they wanted rather than their school uniforms.  Her 2 kids knew nothing about colleges/sports.  They were given a handout to show their parents what was up.  The handout had the KSU, ku and WSU logos on them.  She asked the boys which school's gear they wanted to wear.

They picked KSU.  Why?  The Powercat reminded them of the Transformers logo. 

So there's that...

BTW, resurfacing a NCAA court costs in the neighborhood of 25-30K.

Usually, it's broken down, shipped to court refinisher, sanded, painted, finished, sealed, then re-shipped and assembled on site.  Takes about 3-4 weeks.

That's why you see Okie-State and bunch of other BCS shools that actually care about athletics department brand image, rebrand their courts like every couple of years.  It's an easy process, and relatively inexpensive.

Why K-State has not done it in like 10 years, I have no idea.

Yeah, the octagaon of doom emblem placement at the end of the tunnel could be a good fit.

Nice first impression for the opposition as they enter and exit the court.  Real in your face.

I was sort of imagining a pre-game Anger-Pak for the players that would comprise of gathering in the center of the octagon and ritualistically dancing, jumping around and taunting the opposing team as they enter our court.  Kind of a new tradition thing.  Some student chanting could be worked in as well.

No more dizzying than a parquet floor with a big Texas in the middle.  JMHO.  

I agree it shouldn't be obnoxious with the stain/pattern.  Subtle use of the pattern to make the octagon shape, but still enough grain and stain in the wood would look nice, bring some more attention to the Octagon of Doom nickname, and make our court one of the most unique in the country.

Really like this one.  Would be super happy with this court. 

I'm still partial to having Every Man A Wildcat on the court somewhere, not a big fan of the sig(unless it is someone who is still alive), and we could have done that with TEX still probably could, and I prefer the Big 12 logo in the key.

Some things.

1.  Different colors of wood (i.e. within the 3-point line and outside of it) look rough ridin' terrible, and Texas A&M's court is a rough ridin' abortion.
2.  Purple on black looks dope.
3.  Needs to be a midcourt circle, even if it is faint.  Basketball courts need a midcourt circle thingy, just like every kid needs a father.  And include the jumpers' circle!  Otherwise it's just a boob without a nipple.
4.  Smaller powercat superimposed over that K?   :dunno:

Well I don't know what that means, but I should prob. clarify why the two different tones of wood are stupid: because rough ridin' everybody does it.  Basketball courts go through bad trends every eight years or so, and this (along with gigantic midcourt logos) is what's hot right now.  Adopting these stupid trendy courts is how we ended up with purple trimmed in pastels in the mid-90s, and why we have a ridiculously retardedly huge midcourt powercat right now.

Plus, it looks rough ridin' stupid.

i bet it will be a solid upgrade. bball seems to "get it". like ccrap said though, if there are no katpaks or ood references on the court, i'll prob freak out some and really let them "have it" just because.

also, when will we get to see it?

Yes.

Not sure, haven't heard what they are planning for when/how they make it public. Pretty sure it is getting installed before the 1st football game, so my guess is sometime in the next few weeks they will make some sort of announcement.

Yes, better imo. But I think we would all agree that it would be hard to be worse than the current one.

I have a small suggestion.  Over in the endzone part where we say what conference we are in, well, I suggest we put like an LED message board underneath glass.   That way, to show what conference we are in that week, all they have to do is just change the LED board.   

Really simplifies things, and frankly, makes a perfectly fine conversation subject and possibly worthy of a tour stop and much discussion on ESPN.

Pretty much everything naturally expands/contracts.  No reason octowood wouldn't work other than it is probably much more expensive to install due to installation layout and stuff.  Also, OOD is pretty climate controlled...

So does a regular court, in all directions. It's also fairly equal across the grain and with the grain. The amount is pretty small, particularly in an area that will have a fairly consistant humidity and temperature level. Small, un-noticeable gaps can be incorporated into the design to take care of this "problem".

The problem with Octawood is the court dimensions.  Eventually, you would stop seeing Octagons and just see straight lines, or the shape would get longer than it is tall and look like a really Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)/mumped up rectangle with slanty things toward the ends.  I would still want it, even given this.  To have the octagon start at center court would be fantastic.

i think you could make it look great either with elongated octagons or with diff designs at the ends when your symmetrical octagons need help.

They have a lot of work to do if it is going to be done by next Monday.

What does it look like?

cement floor  :dunno:

Hard to say. SB opposed octowood because he didn't want to do funny things with the wood which obviously didn't happen. But he also did proclaim we are Kstateo and that it can't be ignored, which he was spot on.

Oh well, maybe it will grow on me, but bottom line, we swung for a solid line drive and not for the fences. I'm sure the BBPF and the new press box will make me forgive them, assuming we actually get a new press box.

Yeah.

But its likely I'm just satisified they used the OOD concept in the design.

They incorporated it, but the octagon is some weird elongated shape. Most people visiting probably won't even realize it's an octagon until somebody points it out to them. I would have rather just gone with a standard rectangular baseline. Octowood would have been elite, but that must have been asking too much.

The design overall looks good - the purple border and Octagon looks perfect.  Will be interested to see how this pops on TV.  Don't mind the two tone, but would have liked to see them go a few shades lighter for a bit less contrast.

Aside from the air ball on the stain, big improvement.

This is actually closer to what they intended it appears.

This most definitely.  Watched the Cats in Vegas at the Orleans.  They had some very elite type of lighting.  Not sure of the type of lighting.  Would have to ask Scubot as he is the goEMAW lighting expert.  They were able to turn the lights completely off for entrances, fireworks, etc.  Then flip the light switch back on.  Boom!  Let's play some ball.

If they put a guys name on the court who went to a final four 50 years ago I'd definitely go 'zaker on the court.  There are about 6 people alive who remember watching those Winter teams play.  Nothing screams bad program like idolizing non-championships from half a century ago. :comeatme:

it's a really good design.  the bad elements, the uglyass powercat and the shitty briggs logo are all but mandatory.  maybe twenty years ago some brave kstatriot could have ended our iowan invasion in it's infancy, but it's too late now.

I don't understand why a lot of people here don't like the Powercat. It's one of the best logos in college sports, imo. Better than Iowa's logo, which is good too.

Quote from: The Mockery
Staff reports

Although basketball practice is more than six weeks away, Kansas State introduced a newly-designed and refurbished basketball court at Bramlage Coliseum Monday morning.

The Robbins All-Star Plus floor, which was originally purchased and installed in 2004, received a new court design to incorporate the athletic department's new branding effort, while it was completely overhauled to replace broken pine boards and locking clamps that are used to hold the 290 (6x8) panels together. 

"We are pleased with the new design of the court," said athletics director John Currie.  "Our staff worked through several concepts, and with input from both basketball staffs, we were able to unanimously create something that our fans will enjoy for years to come. I want to thank Dave Smoller, Ron Cook, Casey Scott and Scott Garrett, among others, for all their hard work and dedication on this project."

The floor was sanded down to bare wood and new graphics and court designs were painted to include not only the new design, but also new NCAA rule changes.  The men's and women's basketball teams will now use the same 3-point distance (20 feet, 9 inches), while the men have added a restricted-area arc under each basket.

The design centers on a purple octagon shape that surrounds the floor with a lone purple Powercat at center court. The shape echoes the octagonal design of the building. The "K-State" word mark is prominently found at the top of center court and again under both baskets with the athletics website (www.kstatesports.com) and the new university mark alternating at both ends of the baseline.  Bramlage Coliseum is written at the bottom of center court directly opposite the "K-State" word mark.  The floor maintains its purple lanes, but there is now a darker stain to mark each 3-point line. The Big 12 logo is displayed within each 3-point arc.

The design was a collaboration of several athletics department staff members led by Dave Smoller (director of creative services), Ron Cook (graphics designer), Scott Garrett (assistant athletics director for ticketing, fan experience and sales) and Casey Scott (associate athletics director/athletics operations). Both Smoller and Cook submitted between 10-12 court designs for review.  After gaining input from the men's and women's basketball coaching staffs, elements from different designs were incorporated into the finished product. 

The refurbishment was a necessity after seven years of use. The floor is typically removed an average of six times a year to accommodate various university and public events.  It is common for gaps between the boards to occur over time, as the hardware and mechanisms that hold the floor together start to loosen.

The refurbishment was done at a cost of $39,000. The project, which was done at Robbins Sports' factory in Appleton, Wis., took about four weeks to complete with the floor being removed on July 22.



Appleton, WI. is not very far from me   :emawkid:

The basketball wearing the shades in this video that SB posted would fit really well right in the center.

Still worth noting that the 2-tone wood is bad, and pretty reminiscent of when we tried to be fashionable here, too:

i think if they could've made the powercat even smaller and black and fit it entirely in the center of the circle and then somehow forced briggs (maybe by giving them 20 trillion more ahearn fund points) to use an all black logo as well it would look amazing. the thing is that you have two basketball coaches, an athletic director and for some reason a used car salesman that all have a say in what it looks like and have to sign off on it.

i do feel good about being on the right side of this debate though. i look around at the people sitting at my table and it's myself, sys, michigancat and clams and then i look over at the other table and it's not even a table. it's just an unzipped sleeping bag thrown on the floor that has been set up in the corner with skinny benny and a few other people sitting on it and skinny benny is picking his boogers and wiping them on the bottom of this shoe. have fun over there. my table will take another round of 17 yr balvenie. neat. thanks.

The log cabin walls are not very dark wood.  Besides, this isn't about me and how I chopped trees down to make my own basement walls and then dug out the kaw river valley with my sythe in the most manly and burly way imaginable.  This is about how this:

I'm sure it was one of those "Oh yea sample looks good in this bright light I'm sure it will look just fine" ...to..."oh crap this is a lot darker than it was supposed to be o well players need to play and coaches need to coach we'll just roll with it."

With our basketball budget....a new floor is a pretty big expense.

I really wish I could explain how awesome this facility will be for the program.  The locker rooms in Bramlage are a few steps below Hayseed Western Kansas lockers rooms.  If I was a recruit...I would walk in a laugh.

Pretty  :embarrassed: guys....

It's not the expense, its the fact that until the new practice facility is built they can't ship off the floor for 2 or 3 weeks to get re-finished.   Getting the floor re-finished is not that expensive in light of $100 million dollars spent or about to be spent on athletic facilities.  Michigan's new floor as I recall is probably the best example of what ours should look like.

Right...but until now Basketball hasn't received jack crap for money.  The current locker rooms have not been touched since Martin has been at K-State.  I mean 6+ year old Gatorade and sweat stains on the carpet are pretty disgusting.

Um, while I agree the dressing rooms at Bramlage are inadequate, and its good that they are going to be relegated to primarily game day usage.  I believe they have had at least a handful of upgrades since Huggins and Martin have shown up.   

I also believe they completely overhauled the basketball weightroom in the indoor facility across the parking lot when Huggins arrived.   That's actually a pretty sweet set up, because they can use the indoor facility for agility drills and then walk right into their weight room.   Of course the practice facility will be much better.

You can blame Tim Weiser for all the foot dragging on the practice facility, but be happy kids, according to K-State Athletics IRS Form, "The Weiser Way" picked up a $300K payment from K-State athletics in FY 2011 . . . thanks Jon Wefald.

I'm just going to guess that the two courts in the practice facility are made to be one "giant" court...not two separate courts.  Further, the one in the Bram is probably custom built to fit the space along the sidelines and to the tunnel, and I'm sure the dimensions of the practice facility are different.

Dims are definitely different, and yes there will be a garage door thing between the two gyms that allow them to combine/divide spaces.

Just be glad we aren't the school that mis-measured the space and couldn't fit the practice courts in.  That would be just absolutely embarrassing.

Nice Clean look.  Agree with the powercat being stupid for basketball but I guess from a marketing perspective it's the thing to do?

Would have liked maybe a thin lavendar ribbon around the court as well or something but overall big upgrade and will look good.

Probably too many meltdowns/heads exploding within the fanbase to do that.

LOL, whatever.  Obviously you haven’t been keeping up with the conference realignment conversation. This blog is completely OTSS. Apart from MIR trying to save Olympic stray kittens.
