Seems like a short time to have the court
I think Kstate does.
Wonder if there is some new sponsor or something that they want to incorporate in the design?
I figured we would be getting a new Video board soon, but wondered if we would have to wait for all of this for the new upgrades to Hilton.
Maybe this is part of that? A sponsor jumped on board to pay for renos and is getting put on the floor?
A lot of guessing here, hope someone will get more info.
Here was the bid for the new floor. https://iastate.ionwave.net/PublicD...t=AWAR&pg=0&bidNumber=&title=court&type=&org=
In one of the question responses below: "We would prefer them to be built in to the panels to avoid the issue we are currently having with regards to warping"
That might explain the replacement so soon
From the bid looks like some warping issues with current floor
| Question | Expansion Joints-Are you looking for expansion joints built into the panels or without them? |
| Answer | We would prefer them to be built in to the panels to avoid the issue we are currently having with regards to warping, but would be open to discussion. |
We should of waited a year when we win the natty and then we can buy that floor.
I have a piece from the 2010-2020 floor nice clean piece lol
It's got to be structural. You can re-finish and redesign without replacing.
Ope, beat me to it above. It's warped. Need a humidore.

Yeah, that was the issue. Not sure how they fixed it through the year but know it was warped in sections.
I guess maybe logistically it wouldn't work, but I can't understand why the university wouldn't either cut this into small sections and sell it themselves, or even sell the 335 individual pieces separately. I have to think this would be a big seller. I know I would buy a piece in a heart beat. Just seems like a good change to make a little money (I know in the grand scheme not much) and give a ton of fans a cool piece of ISU history (the bigger part of it).
It seems they don't have the space to store, cute and store again. It's been said they think they could make more money, just don't have the space to keep it for a large period of time.
TCU wins the prize for the ugliest court in the Big 12.
Maybe the We Will Collective could buy this and re-sell individual pieces using the "profit" for players.
