What do you Think of Oregon's New Basketball Floor?

 

I have to say it's different.

This goes right with some of the wild athletic uniforms the Ducks have showcased over the years.  The court has an outline on all sides of a forest of fir trees, an homage to the school's picturesque Pacific Northwest setting and to Oregon's 1939 national title team nicknamed "The Tall Firs."

 In the center of the floor is the slogan "Deep in the Woods," i don't really know why.  Tinker Hatfield is the designer of the floor, Hatfield, a former Oregon track and field star and vice president of design and special projects for Nike, designed many of the shoes from the famed Air Jordan line.  

With Nike involved, I'm rather surprised the tree outline doesn't form some sort of a swoosh..
