New Court For Anderson Arena?

Post by Dayons_Den »

So yeah it is the off season and this means not much team related stuff to talk about. This is an opportunity for me to share some concepts on uniforms and field designs for the falcons. here is the first one for anderson arean.

I think "Bowling Green" has been missing from the floor and also think anderson arena should be on there somewhere also. Good to put the new word marks and logo on there. . .

I think the fade orange and brown would give us a more modern feel and I also miss the Paint... being... paint :-)

Would love comments or suggestions. . I love messing with this stuff. .

not bad.

I would have to say that the ends of the court should say "BOWLING GREEN" or "FALCONS" though.

I agree the paint looks good when its paint, but i've seen some pretty sweet courts that don't go by that.

That looks great, DD! That floor would rock.

Just throw the MAC logo on either side of midcourt and you're there.

I know that "Bowling Green" and "Falcons" is usually on the end line, but often that is obstructed by cheerleaders, towel boys etc. I was designing this court so that t.v. cameras would best pick up the name- thats why the new logo-word mark is on the bench side, but faces the student section and why the MAC logos are in the paint. . .

Although I want Anderson Arena on the floor it loses out to the school name in priority and woudl be cluttered if I put it on the court, I think.

I liked courts when they were goign to the no paint in the paint and less paint around the edges but I think the trend is back to more paint. . .

look for my new football field soon. . .

I heard they are actually planning on repainting it in the offseason so your idea could come true!

I like putting AA on the ends, However it would look better stretched all the way from side to side.

I would like to see the two MAC emblems near midcourt and on the bottom. Then in the paint, I would maybe put Falcons or something. All and all, great design DD. When you proof this out, I think it should be sent Dackich's or Krebs's way.

That would be two basketball courts in the city of Bowling Green I have designed. . .

Personally this layout is great - but, Dan is from the Indiana (Bobby K) camp and actually removed the paint etc for the current look.

The Boise arena looked fantastic on TV - of course it was large enough to host a tournament game so it is LARGE. But the big logo in the middle and the bronco heads stretching from 3-point arch to the other side of the arch was impressive.

I think that looks great, DD. I agree with PGY though - "Anderson Arena" could be bigger and stretched out. Not only is it "home," but you might be able to see it better even if the cheerleaders are on it.

Hey Dayon, think I could get a copy of your template to mess around with? After looking at Boise's floor yesterday I've been looking for one.

The Campaign loves the idea. I might make it one of the planks in our platform. :wink:
