The Big 12 women’s basketball tournament tipped off on Wednesday at T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri, with its brand-new glass floor court that didn’t go over well with fans.

Big 12 unveils LED glass basketball court for conference tournaments
The court, which will also be used for the men’s basketball tournament from March 10–14, features an LED glass floor with a Big 12 tournament logo in the center and with Philips 66 logos on each side of the court.
The technology also allows for different court designs that can be changed with a swipe of a finger, as well as the ability to display shot charts and interactive games.
The new court’s technology was previously used for the 2024 NBA All-Star game.
The floor has some drawbacks, as it appears the half-court line is in the middle of one of the logos, which could be hard to see.
One major design flaw (so far) is there’s no halfcourt line during the game except for in the logo, which is tough to see.
Also, courtside seats now can’t serve drinks because it’s a digital court. pic.twitter.com/T2LnBuu9EO

The court looked to be already in rough condition on Day 1 of play, as a panel looked to be broken.

Basketball fans’ reaction on X were mainly negative toward the new court.
Big 12 made a huge deal about using the glass digital floor at the conference tournament and they settled on the awful static design from last year’s event. pic.twitter.com/7ti1BKEtZA

And the only color anywhere is on the corporate sponsor logo. What a fail. t.co/zPh6q86HwD

A lot has been made of the Big 12 court for the conference tourney but the standard design for game play ain’t it. ?? pic.twitter.com/GaiI7pdbFG

We must team up to cyberbully the Big 12 into changing the look of the court at the Big 12 Tournament. This cannot go on. t.co/2kELWceVSe

The Big 12 has a digital court for their conference basketball tournaments, and could have made it look like whatever they wanted.
They chose the ugliest most distracting court imaginable.

I’ll say it: I hate the Big 12 basketball tournament court. You can see the seams of every single LED screen on the court; it’s giving of AAU tournament in a convention hall with portable courts. And of all the court designs, you choose chalkboard grey with the ugly XII logos?
