In case you missed the news late last week, the Ohio State men’s and women’s basketball programs are getting a new design for their basketball court, and yeah — it’s pretty sleek. Gone is the traditional hardwood color as the base, as it gives way to a gray court with red sidelines, out-of-bounds, and lane areas. It brings OSU into some of the newer looks we’ve seen across the country with these court designs.
Prior to the unveiling to the public, the OSU men’s basketball team got a sneak peek at the new court design and layout, and their reactions are pretty priceless — in a very good way.
If you haven’t gotten a look at how the likes of Devin Royal, John Mobley, and Colin White reacted to their first look at the new floor inside Value City Arena, we’ve got their genuine reactions below, thanks to the “Ohio State Hoops” X account (formerly Twitter).
Though not completely done and able to be viewed in person yet, we can’t wait to see how this new design looks on a 4K high definition television or streaming device.
