I like (other than the volleyball lines which are unavoidable).

There were no volleyball lines on the previous court. I believe that maybe they put the lines down temporarily for each match. Perhaps they are showing up in the tweet to show how it will look with the lines down.

I like it. The VBall lines were definitely on the previous floor but I can't remember the current floor's design and if they were included.

I'd do the 'Devlin Fieldhouse' text differently. Maybe have it follow the curve of the wave, just above the crest.

Typically it's along a sideline or baseline, and I agree, they should have put it elsewhere. A friend suggested maybe it's contractual with the naming of the building or something?

Is put it in the sideline. But, as Pete said, may be there contractually.

Where do you think they will end up putting the font for "Ed Conroy Court" in a couple of years?

The lines for volleyball were taken off the court a couple of years ago. As someone said I hope they appear in the tweet just for demonstrative purposes and aren't going to be permanent.

It's been named Devlin Fieldhouse for a few years now...contract on tape delay?

And hasn't it been on the floor since?

Sure, but I'd imagine there's flexibility as to the location of the name especially on a new floor?

That's what I would think too, unless Devlin is paying for the new floor, (which I have no idea).

dumb idea.. would look much better along the far sideline or behind both baskets... the center circle doesn't get much stationary screen time

Congrats! I don't remember it being center circle of the old floor, but guess that shows how much I pay attention...

In general I agree but at least they're keeping it relatively understated.

Just google image searched Devlin and found a picture of the most recent floor: http://tulanegreenwave.com/images/2016/ ... dhouse.jpg
