    Points.

    Also man, the court looks really pretty with this new lighting, it definitely should pop on television. Pretty decent off-season except for the whole 2018 recruiting class thing.

    I don't know if it's the lights, but the floor just looks better. Much more solid without the skyline weighing one side. And the painted lanes look great.

    Each team gets 3 turnovers before they have to run. That's what the balls represent

    It doesn't seem like it would be difficult to install some sound improving panels to this grid. May not be the whole answer to the sound issue but I bet it would help more than a little. My perspective on the sound is it seems to bounce around up there and just get muddled.

    Just my opinion.

    They cleaned up the spilled Coke, err, got rid of the skyline on the court! Woohoo!

    The Cintas Center ROCKED and looked awesome on TV. Record attendance of 10,817. Excellent job Xavier fans!

    Does the internet work for everyone else there? Yesterday and Baylor game I was connected to cintas guest or whatever but couldnt connect to any sites or social media. Am I missing something?
