New Court

Was there this last weekend for my daughters basketball camp. I don’t think anything has been done yet. Robert Morris new fieldhouse is nice was there Saturday.

My understanding is the Coach Capel likes his floors pretty basic. So I would think we will see the same floor with the new colors. I personally would love to see them do a silhouette of the Cathedral of Learning on the floor somehow. I also would be surprised if the use H2P on the court somewhere.

I saw an older thread on the court and if I remember, many people wanted the floor to be like the way you described it
 
I was wondering if they had changed the direction of the court, so the TV could see the Zoo instead of away from the Zoo! More like the pic, but with the script turned around!

My guess is they make the changes when the team is in Italy so it won't interfere with summer workouts and their youth camps

Yes, they are turning the court. The Pitt will face the other way this year.
 
I'm assuming the Pitt logo will also be the newer, more vibrant blue and gold.


Yes...also my understanding the Pete will be repainted overall to match. It will take time because there is so much to do. Not sure if it is currently in the immediate plans, but I was told they are considering a new scoreboard over center court.
 
Capel's right.

Less is more.

These courts with crap everywhere and logos from fouline to foul line look terrible.

3 things I hate:

1. City skylines at the bottom of the court
2. Oversized logos
3. Too much yellow on the court. Maybe it's just me but too much yellow is like hard on my eyes or something. I can deal with yellow out of bounds if the 3 second lane is blue

Great example......Cal basketball

The script call is beautiful....they had it in smallish letters at the circle.

Then....they put this ridiculous grizzly bear from top to bottom of the floor.

Finally wised up and went back to a much better look
