I wouldn't mind it featured at center court as an occasional alternative, but I don't using both logos at the same time. The Austin skyline is not iconic enough to be used in any capacity. And who is the dumbass that used saguaro cacti? Using cacti at all is bad, but if you are going to do it, at least stick to something that is abundant in our state and common to Austin. I know there are submissions, but of the four in that link, I prefer the bottom left. Skyline and cacti are bad choices for the reasons stated. A more appropriate icon would be an outline of a person sneezing.
October 25, 20214 yr The problem with that one is that there's two competing genres of graphic design. The Bevo at midcourt, and those UT logos in the corners, and that sideline/endline font...those were our looks in the 70's/80's. And then that skyline is obviously more slick and modern, looks like the graphic design they use for stuff on the ACL Music Festival website. Neither is bad on their own, but they look like shit mashed up together like that.
October 25, 20214 yr It’s clearly in jest. I am actually surprised they’re having this contest. A simple burnt orange Bevo in the middle of the court works fine. But if a new flashy court design brings more students/fans, creates a better home court advantage, and it’s what Vic and Beard want then I’m for it.

A bevo of average size at mid court and paint the lanes burnt orange. If you want to have The University of Texas at the edge of the court, that's fine. That's it.
October 25, 20214 yr Probably want to put the most recognizable college sports logo at midcourt of your new arena. But that's just me.

Yeah, some of these designs they're promoting are just bizarre. But what do I know...I just photoshop pics of jagged-tooth aggys and what not.

October 27, 20214 yr Bottom right, lose the skyline. Basically, the exact same as it currently is, for fucks sake.

October 29, 20214 yr They’re def posting the worst options so we all just shrug at the final choice and say it’s fine, could be worse, right?

Top left a little less so. Give me the tower and longhorn from bottom right and the color scheme, interlocking UTs and LONGHORNS along the endlines from bottom left. Replace one LONGHORNS with TEXAS.
October 29, 20214 yr I'm not overly picky, but any of the options with the skyline included should be thrown in the trash immediately. The skyline and the school have absolutely nothing to do with each other.
October 29, 20214 yr There's also no way in hell the court will not feature the Moody Center logo somewhere. They paid way too much money to not be more visible. So you can count out any of the designs without their logo. And as stated above, the most recognizable logo in college athletics will also play a part. Also---serious question...I know it's a modular floor...but is it required by the League to have the conference logo on your courts? One nice thing about the Big XII logo is you can change up the color scheme to compliment your school colors. But the SEC is always that yellow and blue circle logo, which is gonna look like dogshit with some of these court designs.
October 29, 20214 yr No fucking black on the paint scheme. We are not Oklahoma State. Burnt orange and white only.

Everything else is just a generic high rise and in no way connected to the University. 4 hours ago, Steamboat1874 said: No fucking black on the paint scheme. We are not Oklahoma State.

October 29, 20214 yr I dunno, that bottom right one...you heave up a desperation shot at the buzzer from right between half-court line and the 3P arc...we could call it 'A Whitman.' Too soon?

October 29, 20214 yr Haven’t seen one I really like yet. Also a nice troll would be to allow for the sec logo instead of the big12.
October 30, 20214 yr Tower with the longhorn logo is by far the best center court design that we’ve ever had

October 31, 20214 yr It is encouraging they are at least giving the public a chance to comment, instead of just cramming something god awful up our collective asses with no lube. And for my money, they all look too busy.
