We need something cool like that!

I, personally, think that looks like s***.

agreed.

This is the closest thing I've seen to JMU's abomination.

At least there are fewer graphic designs blunders, so JMU keeps their crown.

Speaking of redesigned basketball courts, see Davidson's -

Umm, can we get one of these? We'd have to upgrade the PC's lights though.

Whatever the hell that is, it definitely costs more than the entire Patriot Center.

While simple, our court blows away any of these fancy designs.

I suppose this is the right thread/somewhat related...

Perhaps, some of the heavy hitters like Pikap can express our desire for a VIDEO SCOREBOARD to new AD Edwards? I would be curious to hear where that would rank on his priority list...

I'm sure it's on the list. But, it can't come until after they replace the aging roof of the Patriot Center.

Plus, we haven't had many good plays to be replayed on a jumbotron. However, it would of been nice to have to atleast show close ups of Hewitt in "deep thought".

After I win the lotto the court will look like this.

As mentioned earlier - once roof is replaced - it is done.

With regards to the first post - I think that kind of overdone design looks like assssss. Simple, clean - and Iconic. Think along the lines of Apple Design - not Windows XP

 

[Dawgs99]

Is there a time table for the roof project?

Does it bother anyone else that Mason put all these new TV's around the concourse and they only show ads? IMO at least half of those TV's should be showing live game action so you don't miss anything while you wait in line. I can see showing ads pre and post game but during the game it should be live game action, i'm sure it can't be too hard to figure out how to do that. Just a pet peeve of mine.

Even if it's putting together a one minute video of highlights from the past (Final Four, CAA Championships, buzzer beaters, etc.) A recruit might be there. Might as well use it for recruiting.

I think you are correct based on the last BOV meeting minutes.
