New mid-court logo.

Anyone else notice that the S no longer has a blue outline?

 

[Toga]

I believe John Syracuse alluded to this in a recent post

My son spotted it right away. I like it.

How about the giant "NEW YORK'S COLLEGE TEAM" in front of the scorer's table?

That's also a new addition from TGD, no?

That was there in the beginning of the season. The white outline S just debuted tonight. For the first few games it had the blue outline.

Should SU really be phasing out blue as it moves to a conference where four teams wear orange?

 

[PauliePeppas]

the concrete walls around the upper deck should be painted orange or blue never got why it hasn't, would make the whole dome look ten times better

 

[Madbiker]

I get the feeling someone (Nancy, Nike?) doesn't like blue. Its trending to all orange all the time.

I wish they could replace the bleachers with orange ones

 

[orange79]

I just don't get this whole de-emphasis of the blue. They better never get rid of the blue home FB jerseys.

 

[elkeed]

The white blows. White shows poorly on tv, especially the 3 point line. Somebody grab a paint brush and get to work and make it blue. Hey, what's Marty Headd up to these days.

I think the court looks great. Much brighter.

Was thinking of this when I saw it... Does anyone else remember how BAD the old rubber court in the original Dome floor looked?

 

[OrangeCrush22]

I actually like the orange and white. Do you know how many other teams use orange and blue? A LOT.

UTSA
UTEP
Virginia
Illinois
Auburn
Boise State
Florida
etc.

Teams that use orange and white?

Texas (Burnt orange)
Tennessee (Ugly orange)
Syracuse (Real orange)

Clemson uses orange and white football uni's, but there is some purple in it.

Makes more sense to brand us as orange and white.

 

[All4SU]

Well, we aren't Orange and Blue. And we're not orange and white. We're Orange. Just Orange. Nothing else. So any other complementary color is acceptable in my mind. Blue works...white works...silver works...

I agree. I thought it looked great.

The old court was just hideous. Looked like a HS cafeteria.

 

[Scooch]

As long as they don't start pushing friggin' maroon into athletics color schemes like they did for academics. That seriously pisses me off.

 

[All4SU]

The only thing that pisses me off about it is that now I'll have to have my tattoo redone.

 

[Cuseology]

Don't forget the "duct tape"! Always a fan favorite

Tartan surface, it was called, right?

 

[SUfanNC]

Call me a traditionalist but I don't really like the white outline. I think with the blue trim the orange really pops and the colors look much richer. Also I wish they would wear the blue uni's once in awhile. I think they are sharp looking. Maybe make it a holiday game or when they reach the final of a preseason tourny.

 

[Madbiker]

As long as they don't start using totally unassociated colors...like Maryland did which is just hideous. Maryland used to be red and white. Now its yellow, black, red...huh? I thought the new Dome court looked good.

 

[Whitey23]

I was looking for a before picture to compare. Came across this from the Nuggets v Pistons game.

 

[elkeed]

Tartan surface, it was called, right?

Was all the rage back in the day until they realized it was like playing on concrete. It had zero cushion and caused all kinds of stress related injuries. There is nothing like a high quality hardwood surface because it has natural elasticity.

 

[All4SU]

Yes, Tartan. Kinda beige and milky.

Hurts the eyes too.
