MoStateHusker Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Landscape prep work for the arena will begin Wednesday. My friend and coworker will be the foreman on site. (Despite my best efforts to get the job) He's promised progress pics once they get going, but major landscaping wont start until May. Quote Link to comment
Twinkletoes Flintstone Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 This is the latest design, released in January, I think. Photo courtesy Lincoln JournalStar The design is not dissimilar to the floor on the Hendricks Center practice courts: I like the Hendricks floor, a little too much white though IMO. The design above it I am not sure if it's official or not, thought I heard Boehm or somebody like that saying it's still a work in progress. I don't mind it so much, but the white floor lines in the court MUST be red. If they are white then it is way too much white. 1 Quote Link to comment
Twinkletoes Flintstone Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I hope the three point arcs and lane are red like the Hendricks court. BETTER YET! Go with my idea: Very nice, I could be down with this. Be even better if the baselines were either red to match the sidelines, or the sidelines were natural to match the baselines. Other than that this is very nice. Love the center court design. Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I'm not a fan of the Hendricks/proposed Pinnacle floor. I like the N being large, I like the lanes not being filled with color, but I don't like the border. Seems too cutesy. I wish it was just a solid red all the way around or something.

I agree about the sidelines, but I'm not a huge fan of the large center logo's. I really like the courts that are simple and let the woodgrain be the center of attention, gives it that old school feel. See Indiana- Quote Link to comment
tmfr15 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I am not a big fan of the state of Nebraska in the middle of the court. The state of Indiana doesn't look any better to me. It's just a personal taste thing. Quote Link to comment

I would like to see the "end zones" read HUSKERS instead of Nebraska. There's a big N in the middle that kind of takes care of the Nebraska branding. Quote Link to comment

Do it like football and have Huskers one end, Nebraska on the other; and make the floor red, and the letters white. Quote Link to comment

huskeraddict Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Did some updating and this is what would happen if I was put in charge of designing the PBA floor/Memorial Stadium turf: -Remove multi-turf -Add 'Tom Osborne Field' which was on the turf for one season in 1998 -Update baseline wordmarks -State outline returns in different stained wood -B1G logos moved to inside the lane Juuuuuuuust for LoMS 4 Quote Link to comment

These look great huskeraddict! I especially love the idea of bringing back "Tom Osborne Field" to Memorial Stadium's turf. I remember that field from 1998 and this would be a very welcome addition, and in my opinion should be a permanent addition. The basketball court looks awesome as well. Your idea of including the state outline in a different wood grain tone at center court is brilliant. Quote Link to comment

Only change I would make is adjusting the kerneling on the baseline wordmarks so each is the width of the court. I would also keep the two-tone turf. Was gonna do it myself but Photoshop is nowhere to be found at work. I like them though. FOr sure. Quote Link to comment

Well played or happy mistake? Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Don't get rid of the multi turf. That will make our design ultra bland. I would support doing away with the multi turf if we could get away with putting some color in the endzones. Quote Link to comment
