Halton/Music/Uniform changes for the 2011-12 Basketball Season

So we have a slightly new uniform for the upcoming season, anything else?

Halton Arena improvements/upgrades? (pretty sure it’s not posiible with current structure, but would love to see 2nd level LED boards around the arena somehow.)

New Floor scheme? (like the current floor, hope it doesn’t change)

Any new introduction/music information? (needs to always be hip-hop beat)

New cheerleader or Gold Dusters uniforms?

The area between the men’s and women’s 3-pt lines is now black. It’s pretty damned ugly.

Why did they do that?

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Because they hate us, they want us dead and the black swash arch represents that hate and death.

METAPHYICAL

I disagree… Looks pretty cool to me.

Might be kinda confusing for the women’s team to play on though…

It won’t matter anyway when the distances become uniform in future years as is rumored.

Any pics by chance?

WE HAVE RULES HERE.

  1. Know your place, keep your mouth shut and keep any reasonable thoughts to yourself! 8)
  2. See rule 1 and follow it.

WHO hates us? And what is the football know-it-all doing posting in the basketball forum? Shouldn’t you stick to keeping us all informed about football? :slight_smile:

The Authority hates us. They conspire against you. They want your loyalty, and your blood.

It is known.

He who must not be named…

I guess that’s one way to “fix” it now that the men’s and women’s 3-point line is the same in college hoops. Both Duquesne and Xavier put in new floors in their respective arenas over the summer, so their courts reflect the rule change that occurred in May. Hmmm…

Wait… what?

[quote=“ZombieLew, post:15, topic:25708”]Wait… what?[/quote]The line change for women’s basketball was proposed in May. I guess it passed.

FWIW, here’s the link to the thread started back in May about the then-proposed rule changes:

[quote=“Run49er, post:18, topic:25708”]FWIW, here’s the link to the thread started back in May about the then-proposed rule changes:

Link: Proposed NCAA hoops rule changes[/quote]

From a link within that link:

The rule book specifically spells out that officials cannot go to the monitor for judgment calls such as to determine who committed a foul (unless it is flagrant), determine whether there was basket interference or goaltending, or determine whether a violation occurred. That has not changed.

ELBOW GAME.

What is the new Norm the Niner look? thought i read or saw a thread on it but couldn’t find it.

any info or pics?
