Having a horribly marked court as you describe to me would the last option though. Got a picture?  |
I wish I knew how to get video over from ESPN3, etc. The only video I can find is low-angle stuff from local news outlets. Here's a link to the game on ESPN360. If you're on any of the cable systems which is needed to log in - and there are tons - you'll be able to see it.

If you can't see it, what they did was put white tape down five feet inside each end line to shorten the court. They also used white tape to "shift" the lanes and FT semi-circles five feet and create new high-school three-point arcs . The arcs were really distracting because the Hulman Center has the new college arc - in white - and never removed its old NFHS/NCAA arc, which is in black.
There were definitely a few plays on the end lines where the players and/or officials were confused by the whole thing.
