I like the first one but I think it would be awesome if we could make the state of Ohio look like bricks

Even if these never happen, this is exactly the kind of thing I want to waste time looking at.

Is the old Convo logo the outline of the building (kinda?)

I like the first one but instead of the Attack Cat, a big green paw. I love the paw. BRING BACK THE PAW!!
I too am partial to the Paw! But seeing as how we literally are Ohio, the outline of the state needs to be on the court somewhere.

Now, about that video board.......
Yes, I agree with the outline of the state. So let's do the outline and a big ole' paw straight in the middle (especially covering up the central Ohio area :) )

I'm not a fan of two-tone courts at all. Oh well. I'm sure someone already has their mind made up on this or these wouldn't even exist.
If you go to their twitter page, this design firm did a court for everyone in the MAC.

So this firm was actually hired to do a re-design for NIU after one year? ;)
I think this was just someone messing around, kind of like the posts floating around redoing the NFL helmets. I don't think the Administration is actually looking at these designs to replace the current one. But, I could be way off base and these could be legit. I just don't think so.

Look around the foul lines on either side of the court....not the best straight on shot but pretty clear view:

Thanks bn9. That makes sense.

After the huge endorsement deals come in, where should be put the "OhioHealth Arena" and "Cardinal Health Court" logos?

We shouldn't even worry about these until the engineering study is complete on whether the structure can handle the weight of all that paint.
