I really don't get what the big deal is, this is 2013 right? Really sucks for Towson, they spent a powerful amount on turf and now it's illegal for a playing surface, way to tackle the big issues NCAA

So you can't have hashtags but the turf can be red, blue, purple, etc...????

I'm not for outright banning it but it is pretty annoying and rather stupid and obnoxious when I see hashtags all over a basketball court. Just stop the nonsense and play the game.
Considering how I know I came across, now get off my lawn!

Every decision the NCAA makes just further proves the point of how draconian they are with things that really just are not important at all and how clueless and incapable of making a rational decision on the things that do matter.

Hoping Towson gets reimbursed for having to re-do their field right after they finished it. The NCAA simply enjoys irritating people, it seems like.

No, my understanding was Boise, and Washington(or whatever the team is with the red feild out west) were grandfathered in but all future fields after theirs were not aloud to use the color's.

Wonder what happens if Central Arkansas tries to move up.

That's not an actual rule. I don't know why everyone says it is.
