If they can improve the problems, why not?

Cactus🌵Cat

Even if it was improved it shouldn't ever return due to
1. Tradition
2. Avoid the national embarrassment of having to change it mid tournament
3. It's an unnecessary expense
4. Back lighting the players makes a harsh and unpleasant viewing experience
5. Slippery surface/safety risk
6. The NCAA Tournament will be played on traditional wood, why become accustom to anything other than that.

You listed problems. If you fix the problems, why not? Your #6 issue is the only criticism that holds.

I can appreciate the last minute change. Larry Scott would have been stubborn and allowed the dangerous surface to remain.

Yormark made a big change and I give them credit for "trying" to be innovative.

Those were my first thoughts. The women's tournament witnessed multiple slips/falls and the change didn't occur until the men's coaches complained.

Back to last year's hideous court.

Clearly Yormark doesn't know what to do with hard wood lol. https://x.com/i/status/2032575183844700484
