Hopefully they re-brand the family tarp as well.

Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008

It looks pretty good. 

Also happy to know that this is Robbins top of the line Portable Floor.

Don't kid yourselves, that thing is gross.

I agree that if the really light wood was darker, or the dark wood was lighter it would look much better.  As it is,  :barf:

Briggs logos, JFC.  Put Tex Winters signature there and it at least takes it from a 3 to a 4.

The darker shade inside the arc is disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

No one, on earth, can believe that is visually pleasing.


It isn't.

The goal is not for people watching in the coliseum to become queasy or for those watching at home on televisions to become physically ill or lose their appetites for the treats they are sharing with friends and family.

Yeah, that's exactly it. I think it's not necessarily the contrast per se, but rather that it's the dominant feature. You immediately look to the court ends and not center court.

I'll be looking at the sexy adorable, adorable cats playing their way into my heart. Not some perfect looking floor. To each his own.

In the grand scheme of things, does the floor really matter?

Would look better if the powercat and the lanes were the dark wood.

It is impossible to say, about this floor, "it looks great".

Someone, somewhere, needs to honestly believe that.

No one does.

yeah that looks badass.
This court looks better than our last court.
This court could look better without the wood inside the arch stained so dark.
I am happy with the court.  I could be happier.

i like it.  pretty & functional.  just hope it's bouncy.

ksu_fan has to be feeling pretty great.  if it wasn't for him, no one would have ever decided to kill the painted corners to emphasize the unique octagonal nature of bramlage.

Give me a break, drama queen. Your psychedelic technicolor posts are more likely to make me ill than the new court.

I give the court an 8 out of 10.

Willing to bet a high correlation between people that love this new court and people that didn't know how to answer the combofans thread about what color socks to wear with dress pants.
