Per report in Lexington Herald Leader today.

The University of Kentucky men’s basketball team will forever have a losing record on the third court to grace the Rupp Arena floor. After just one game, it’s being replaced. Rupp Arena announced in a social media post Thursday afternoon that officials were “not satisfied” with the court and the company that built the playing surface — Robbins Inc. — would be delivering a new floor as soon as possible. The court was installed for Kentucky’s home game against UNC Wilmington on Dec. 2, and UK — just four days removed from a 22-point blowout of No. 8 Miami on the “old” Rupp court — lost a shocker to the visiting Seahawks, who pulled off an 80-73 upset over the heavily favored Wildcats. The loss had nothing to do with the quick switch, obviously.

He knows what he's doing.  It's just that the court didn't listen.

It looks after about 7 months the new UK court at Rupp that was replaced after just 1 game (that the Cats lost to UNC Wilmington) has now been put back down in Rupp.

To me it looks the same as back in December it is just a shot 7 or 8 second video pan of the court.

It's the exact same design, I think its a completely new court. The new one at Memorial is the same or at least very similar.

Apparently the new court with a new design that they put down last year wasn’t working as well as they liked and head a dead spots. So the new court only lasted one game, before they had to switch back to the old court with the old design. They now either fixed the court that has issues, or put a brand new court together with the new design that was suppose to have been used last year. 
 

Here is a pic of the design that was used for one game last year and should now be permanent for this year it looks like.

Whew! Overjoyed to see a normal looking court versus some multi colored Rorschach test pattern.
