Article where idea came from

Here's the initial article I read that made me think of asking everyone.

Distracting glare detracts from first game at Oregon's new arena - The Dagger - NCAAB - Yahoo! Sports

First time I've ever considered asking someone to stop reading.

Ugliest floor I have ever seen.

My son will not play college basketball at Oregon because of that and the fact that he doesn't have that skill set, but if he did......

JRUT Actually in regards to Coach K court he has a LOT of input into it. He/Duke has been approached countless times about building a NEW Arena and he has repeatedly said he is not interested and if they do he will resign.

Now with regards to Oregon's court. I will be contrarian, I like it.

I was there once and couldn't believe how incredibly small it really is.......pretty cool place though.

The money they've lost over these many yrs not building a large, new venue is $much$!

GRUN - That is debatable. Scarcity of resources etc make getting tickets VERY difficult. My wife and I are on different sides of the issue. (She favoring UNC) But we have always said that for facilities you should pick UNC for game day you should pick DUKE. (And now that Duke has the new practice facilities....I WIN!)
