Floor at Knight Arena installed

[greenyellow]

The new floor at Knight Arena has been installed and it is pretty special. It has a tree motif on it so that it looks like you are looking through a clearing in the forest. There are some graphics associated with Pat Kilkenny since the court is named for him.

I think it is pretty cool, another thing that makes the UO unique!!

The Logo looks weird. That Matt writing under the "O" doesn't look so great.

That is the sickest court of all time... wow. Tinker Hatfield designed it & said he wanted to include a NW theme & honor the Tall Firs national title team. Its actually pretty awesome how he did that.

I think that's the ugliest thing I've ever seen on a basketball court.

I like it. I don't think we talk enough on here how great the new arena is going to be. Mac Court is so historic, but it's time for something new.

Yeah I don't get why they just don't put the Matt logo on the elbow right outside of the 3 point line just like other courts do. Having it by the "O" makes it look ugly.

Here's a better picture of it.

What I wanna know is why did they name it after Pat Killkenny? He already had an entire baseball complex named after him. That wasn't enough?

Just for fun. Oh & he donated a couple mill to the court.

When I saw it yesterday I hated it, but the more I've looked at it I like it. As someone who loves the outdoors it seems like an accurate look of the forest just as the sun is coming up, hmm maybe a metaphor for the new duck era? The last couple years had been dark for UO basketball, but the UO basketball is rising again? I promise if UO wins, this floor will become iconic around Oregon.

I didn't like it at first but after seeing all the details, it has really grown on me. It's nice to see some history being incorporated into the new court.

I have a feeling it is far more impressive in person...
