Pittsburgh's Jamie Dixon: Lengthy 3-point shot has actually congested the lanes.

Jamie Dixon: With longer 3-point shots you get more zone and longer possessions. The rule was counter-productive.


Let's keep this guy away from any competition committee please. If he really wants a shorter 3-pt line, he can go coach HS ball. If college teams could shoot from 18 feet out, defenses wouldn't pack in with zone, no matter where you put the line.

Doesn't seem to affect the NBA with their longer distance arc. I think the real answer may be going to a 24 or 30 second shot clock...

I think the real answer may be sending Jamie Dixon to explore the center of an active volcano.

And of course call a foul when perimeter players are held, bumped off path or contacted with two hands or one hand and a forearm.

Yes. His team's style of play is one of the main offenders and this is what makes college hoops awful. It's hard for the best players to show off their talent when the defense can mug them.
