Title: NCAA Basketball Rule Changes
Post by: pmull on July 12, 2015, 08:12:23 AM
There are some significant rule changes for next year. The quote and post below is from Bama Hoops Blog. There are many changes that I have not heard about.

Quote
The NCAA approved a myriad of rule changes for the upcoming season.  I can not recall a season with as many significant rule changes.  These are probably the most significant changes to the college game since the 3 point line.  As many of you know I officiate high school basketball, so I keep up with these things fairly closely, as often times rule adjustments and points of emphasis eventually filter down.  Anyway, here's what is new for 2015-2016

-30 Second Shot Clock-  This is long overdue and should improve the pace of the game.  It's my understanding that Coach Johnson intends to practice with a 24 second shot clock anyway, so this should only help us.

-Only 3 timeouts to carry over to second half: I'm not crazy about this one, as I think it will just encourage coaches to needlessly use another timeout in the first half.  You still get 5 per game, so now instead of one "use it or lose it" timeout in the first half, you have two.

-Any timeout within 30 seconds of a scheduled media timeout will be used as that media timeout.  Good.  Nothing worse than the media timeout, 20 seconds of play, then another timeout, etc.

The Globe Trotters have been using "4 point" areas for a few years now.  Not sure why NCAA can't do the same...

I love the idea of a 30 second clock. I don't see a reason to have timeouts transfer from the first to 2nd half.

I like all of these rule changes. Especially the 30 second shot clock, increasing the arc under the basket to 4 feet, eliminating the 5 second rule when a player is dribbling and not allowing a coach to call time out to avoid a 10 second call.

Bingo! Major improvements to the game.

No new academic rules?
4-point shot if your GPA is 4.0!

Height disadvantage adjustment:
'No dunks if you are 6'10" or taller'.

All free throws and three point shots must be shot underhanded. :dunno:
