make it NBA distance. Every college game feels like a 3 point contest. Too many 3s it's getting hard to watch.

Or at least FIBA distance.

I would take that, and the ability to touch the ball on the rim offensively. When it is obviously going out, and a player puts it in then I don't see anything wrong with it. FIBA easily has the best rules, in my opinion.

I agree completely. This is a rule change that makes perfect sense, instead of 4 fouls per team before the bonus with a hazy "reset" at the 10 minute mark.

Arizona disagrees with the OP.

Also the immediate inbounding off turnovers

No 1 and 1, move the line back, and no alternate possession just jump the dang ball

Just institute NBA rules all around, including the ability to move the ball up after a timeout.

I'd rather have the ability to move the ball up than the moving the line back honestly (though I'd like both).

I hate that rule. What about a team that is losing and is pressing?

It's mainly used by the team that is losing, to move the ball up past halfcourt to get a legit shot off under a couple seconds.

IMO, that outweighs the ability to escape a press in terms of tactical ability and excitement.

Did I mention that I hate that rule?

Hasn't Silver said NBA end of games take too long? Besides the fouls, I think a lot of it is because of this rule. Coaches hoard their timeouts just to move the ball up in the last minute.

I really don't understand why it takes the NCAA so many years to make adjustments. It's easier to get FDA approval for a new cholesterol pill than it is to move the line back.

Omg. Please. Why not just award 2 points for calling a timeout while we're at it. Or better yet, let's just remove the backcourt altogether and just use one basket. We don't want to inconvenience anyone.

Well, that was a dramatic response.
