I think we should put in a million miles of ribbon board and have them project the same airbrushed bullshit that lines the walls in the concourse. "Bounce Pass", "Triple Threat", "Zone Defense" and whatnot.

Ahh yeah, this but the underside is octagonal and it says DOOM!





Would probably say Briggs or something.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

 I like the color combinations of the NCAA tournament floors that are duplicated at all the tourney sites.

I prefer when the venue makes the floor.  Uniform court NCAA nazi branding renders arenas devoid of character.

I like the consistency and don't care one bit about the character of the arenas

Not as bad as the NFL taking away original Super Bowl logos.

KBOR Facilities Master List Report-

KSU Athletics Sound and Video Upgrades:  Total Project $12 million FY 2014 thru FY 2016

Also, I have to say, I was somewhat impressed with the scoreboard they put in on the new tennis courts, definitely one of Daktronics higher end collegiate tennis scoreboards.

What if its minus instead of plus? 34-31 = 3. So 3 new jumbotron boards is what the big news is!  :ksu:

Those high tech road tiles that are heated, allow for electrical and data cabling right underneath the road surface, are solar panels and have, what for it . . . LED lights than can be changed for lane configurations and light up at night . . . . as the new basketball court.

The 3 second lane just got a little wider on the oppossing team end of the court.
