Split the court: Naismith end (the one with the visitors' bench) and the Self end (the one with the KU bench) :)

It will not be the court, AFH, or Naismith Dr.

It hasn't been named Naismith Court for all that long. I doubt it gets changed though. Maybe they could name the rafters after him, he owns a good chunk of them.

We need one significant place named after Self, and another significant place named after the suggestion box.

Cuz I mean, come on, we might not even have a dynasty without that thing!

I enjoyed this suggestion.

I could see something like KU's bench area getting the name.

He asked some rich people for money. The rich people gave it to him and their name is on the building.

Yep. It's what is known in the development world as a "naming opportunity."

Good idea!

Anything but changing the name of the court or AFH.

Self has been great, but James Naismith is James Naismith.

Wonder how opinions on this topic will change if we get hit with some ncaa penalties for our cloudy recruiting track record / the fbi stuff.

I hate agreeing with Illy, but he's right here.

Naismith Court hits harder with viewers and recruits than Self Court does.

When he talks about his first day on the job here, Self mentions being wowed by driving along Naismith Drive. I think he might really appreciate having a street named after him.
