WarTiger 3,901 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Arena has been the same since in opened in 2010 and I have to say, I love the new look. I like that they are changing it up, and its likely they'll change it again in 6-7 years. Here are some pics of the progress. First the original look: New look progress: Orange elements added: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cptau 169 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 I like it a lot. I like that the emphasis is on blue which is Auburn's primary color. The lack of a color border around the old floor layout looked strange. The only think I would chane is to make the AU logo much smaller. I'm a purest when it comes to basketball floors. I like the way they looked 20 years ago before the jump circle became lost in giant logos and all manner of ads and writing appeared on the hardwood. The use of multiple wood tones is also distracting and should be banned. How refs and visiting player adjust to all the strange floor designs we see now is a mystery. The ncaa needs to sets some floor design standards. However they used some wild layouts in their own ncaa tournament floors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homersapien 11,367 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Looks great!!! Big improvement to accentuate the blue. Now if only we would lose the orange unis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,075 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 That is so crisp. Love the navy border and glad the key is blue too. I bet it will look great with the student section in their orange shirts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it comes down to it, players aren't distracted by that, they're playing a game... at least that's just what I experience when I'm playing a game.

AU9377 4,927 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I think it looks great. I can only imagine what the total cost was, but I would think we would get ten years of use from a project of that size. After all, we did spend over $80 million to build the place just a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,822 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 The navy and the hardwood color make for a better combination than the orange IMO. And I like orange being featured usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
