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.

I think their needs to be a reduction of TV times outs, to two per half under 12 and under 4. That will allow the game to be more fluid and put the pauses in play (time outs) into the coaches hands instead of trying to scheme or hold on to the time outs as they are now.

But that will never happen because of the $$$ involved.

You are right. I would be good with one or the other. There are simply too many stoppages in play IMO.

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

I've had this idea of reducing the number of "coaching interaction time outs", you have the TV number, you have the coaching number, get the TV and Coaching interaction total to +/- 2 of where it was before all games became televised (for the most part).

Meaning if that number was say 5 coaching interaction time outs, all the coach to have the same number of TOs as current, but make them non interaction, lets say that total was 8. 2 full (TV), 3 30 sec (coach), 3 non interaction per teams.

Non interaction meaning if a coach/player needs to call a TO to retain possession of the ball (traps, 10 second back court, player on the floor gaining possession not traveling, etc), you can call TO, but the ball goes to the sideline to be inbounded with play resuming.

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'd prefer to see a change to the TV timeouts. 4 per half plus the full timeouts by coaches takes a lot away from the flow.

I've never played so I don't know what it's like to play for 8-10 straight minutes without a TV timeout.

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