Appears the NCAA is wanting to speed up the games.

•Reducing the number of timeouts.

•The reduction of the shot clock...

•Eliminating live-ball timeouts

•Changing the 10-second rule so that a team has ten seconds total to cross half court. Calling a timeout in the back court currently refreshes the clock.

There are a few other rules on the table — widening the lane, using the NBA’s continuation rule, no scoring on charges — but those four are the big four that have been complained about the most.

Would have been nice to specify what sport in the title.

This needs to happen. Teams already have the TV timeouts.

•Eliminating live-ball timeouts Bad

Enforcing current rules would be a better start - travelling, offense intiated contact, flops...

Don't they know that speeding up the game will lead to more injuries??? Faster play means more trips up and down the court, which means greater fatigue, and THAT is when injuries happen!

How many players are going to have to die before the NCAA recognizes it's folly!?!?

I agree with all of these with the exception of removing the live ball time out and adding the NBA continuation. However, I'm not 100% against removing the live ball time out. I'm for rewarding good defense.

I see the NCAA is asserting their relevance again by changing rules. This is essentially what the US Congress does as well.

need to specify this is basketball.
i like those four along with widening the lane, I don't like the nba continuation rule and the charges stuff.

eta: actually don't think we should lower the shot clock unless it is by 5 seconds

I do think bailing offensive guys out for minimal contact should be addressed. if you are out of control the d should have more leeway with contact.

Reduce it by one timeout and you only get 3 in the second half.

This needed to happen years ago, if NCAA wanted the game sped up and higher scoring, than this is a no brainer. 24 or 30 seconds would be fine.

I like this as well, if a defense has you trapped, you shouldn't be able to call a timeout.

Yes, please.

All of these need to happen. Along with every ref calling the game like they did in the NCAA tourney. No more 60 fouls a game bull shite that SEC refs like to pull.
