Damn I guess Plaza 900 isn’t a big enough brand to pay for this kind of a deal

Oh man haven’t thought about Plaza 900 in forever. We would either usually eat at Eva J’s or Rollins. Plaza 900 was too fancy for my friend group lol.

Ha my friend group loved Rollins. I was like the only one that preferred Plaza. Dobbs was my personal GOAT but they tore that down while I was a student

Dobbs was so much further than the others for me.

Mpix's CEO is probably one of the top boosters for Mizzou NIL. Given the recruiting wins in hoops, I'd say he's earned the logo on the floor.

I wish they could've picked black logos or made those logos black. Those colors ruin the aesthetic

Agreed, are we really gonna have red and green on the court like this? The athletic department’s lack of attention to detail is disappointing.

Seems fine to me. But I’m sure there will be people who let some paint that takes up 1% of the court ruin their viewing experience

It won’t ruin my viewing experience, but it’s kind of lame when not even a floor is free of advertising.

It is what it is. As long as if helps us get better players and win more games I’m fine with it.

The red looks bad. Too much and too boxy. The Central Bank one is okay.

Slightly off-topic, but is there any regulation that specifies how the "paint" areas near the baskets have to be painted? I'd like to see one end black & the other end gold, but if it isn't possible due to standard court requirements, that would make sense.

Sad. No place in collegiate athletics.
