Cajundome floor

[CRAWFISH61]

Not really. The article says it will be a "much-cleaner design" that "emphasizes the Ragin' Cajun brand." Not sure what it means, but it seems that the swamp design will be either gone or redone in a cleaner manner. It's cagey possibly because UL is being that way.

From the article

Cajundome workers began installation of the new-look court in recent days.

The floor itself is not new, but the design of it is.

“Most basketball courts have a handful of resurfacings in their lifespan,” UL spokesman Crawford said. “This was a latest resurfacing — a re-gloss.”

I saw that line, too. But that directly contradicts what's written toward the top:

Out is the swamp mural scene that was introduced in November 2016, three seasons ago, as part of a $21.2 million Cajundome renovation project.

In: a much-cleaner design.

I mean, I could be wrong, because the article is confusing. But I think that's what it says.

In any event, I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I hope they go with more Vermillion and White design with Louisiana at the ends.

I can confirm the swamp is gone.

Only if it’s got yellow AND black.

......A very bad idea is corrected....worked 20 years with design concepts.....some are great and receive awards.....some, as in this case, can be corrected.....looking forward to seeing the new floor!

Personally, I'm somewhat sad to see it go. I thought it was a good effort. Not perfect, but distinctive.

IMO somehow it was a mess when viewed in small snippets which most basketball games are seen in. When seen as a full picture it’s great. Don’t know how exactly to explain it. I’m more excited about a more traditional look than regretful about the apparent failure of the swamp scene.

Glad they didn't use the money to buy something else for UL athletics. I would have hated to see them spend it on something that helps us win games.

They could have bought some nice home games for the fans with the money wasted on new floor designs every 3 years
