WACO, Texas -- Baylor Athletics has unveiled the new court design for the Mark & Paula Hurd Floor at Paul & Alejandra Foster Pavilion. 

The court design will feature a green border around the playing surface, with the "BAYLOR BEARS" word mark across the baselines and the classic interlocking BU at midcourt. On the east sideline, between the team benches, a depiction of Baylor's four national championship trophies will be displayed. "Foster Pavilion" will be written in gold text underneath the west sideline in recognition of the namesakes of Baylor's new Foster Pavilion.

Included under the Foster Pavilion name is "Waco, Texas," representing our tremendous city partnership. Our city, our Waco – a city on a hill,  steeped with tradition, countless opportunities, and a rich variety of experiences.

On the playing surface, each lane will have a darker stain and will feature the Big 12 Conference logo in green and gold, along with 1845 stained in each free-throw arch, denoting the year Baylor University was chartered by the Republic of Texas, making Baylor University the oldest university in Texas and the world's largest Baptist University. 

The Baylor Bear head logo will be displayed inside each 3-point arch. On each end of the interlocking BU logo at midcourt, the court will be labeled the "Mark & Paula Hurd Floor." Baylor Athletics' social media marks will be displayed along the length of the court in front of the benches.

Absolutely love the court design as described, And, I know it's the right thing to do, but MAN does that look tiny!

Is it my imagination or is that the pre 2019 "BU"?

Nevermind. I was looking at the wrong artwork.

I asked in the women's BB forum, why does the design have the NBA size lane instead of the usual NCAA lane?

Solid court. I was a little worried (very little) we would pull a TCU or Oregon.
