Big 12 is roasted because of its basketball court “attack on the eyes”

Big 12 basketball has never been so difficult to see.

The league insists on playing on a floor that was compared with a magical eye illusion or a Louis Vuitton handbag.

In the hope of modernizing his appearance and attraction to a younger audience, the Big 12 was worked together and was undefeated with sneakers and streetwear brand in Los Angeles to design the ground for his men’s and women’s conference tournaments in the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City. The unlikely cooperation created a court that was adorned with hundreds of stylized Big 12 “XII” logos from one baseline to another.

Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark defended the polarizing design this week by pointing out that the court deals with “about our student athletes”. The feedback from you, said Yormark reporters at the Big 12 tournament, was generally positive.

“Every athlete who ran at this dish last week came up to me and said:” Brett, it’s fantastic, “said Yormark on Tuesday.” You made selfies. You loved it. “

The reaction of fans present and television viewers from home was less enthusiastic. The complaints began last week when Hailey van Lith TCU led to his first Big 12 women-basketball tournament title. They declined on Tuesday and Wednesday when the Big 12 men’s tournament was typing.

Some spectators described the Court of Justice as an “attack on the eyes” and lean against his headache or with seizures inducing. Others argued that the Big 12 Court designer should be “imprisoned” or “without payment”.

The defense of the court’s closest was that it personally looked less hideous than on television.

The BIG 12 courtyard reflects a path of clean, traditional wooden floors over the college and professional basketball. Non -traditional patterns and oversized logos are trendy, be it in Oregon’s “deep into the forest” feed dish, from Cal State Bakersfields Blue Floor or Tcus Frogskin Design.

Yormark does not seem to bother that the Big 12 Court was not popular with spectators. He estimates that the league receives additional attention.

“This is our stage,” he said on Tuesday, “and we wanted to make a profound explanation.”
