@KegsnEggs: This is, just, no. Next. RT @slmandel: Rules committee proposing 10-second defensive substitution period on every play.

@doug_keegan: NCAA Rules committee plots to kill hurry up offenses, prohibit snaps before 40 second play clock reaches 29 seconds. LINK

@Mengus22: In the most NCAA thing ever, teams that snap the ball too fast will now be penalized for delay of game for not letting them delay the game.

@BFeldmanCBS: Text from a coach on new rules proposal: "the 2 coaches on the rules committee were 84th & 106th in plays run last year. C'mon man."

@JasonKirkSBN: These things work out. All those extra seconds for Alabama just mean more field goals returned for touchdowns.

the HUNH is a gimmick. it's like the "quick pitch" in baseball. it's bush league and it's chicken shite. i hope they do eliminate it. line up and play football beatch. quit being a pussy.

Just curious but what percentage of your snaps are snapped before 30 seconds anyway? You already have to wait for your own substitution and then any defensive substitution. Isn't this a matter of only 2-3 seconds at most?

What the hell happens when a team is driving for the lead in the last 2 minutes and needs to snap the ball quick? Are they going to be penalized then? Making an exception for an under two minute is still stupid, because it changes the rules of the game in the final minutes.

Even the most hurry up teams only do this a handful of times a game.

Seems like a lot of bitching about a rule that has doesn't change anything.

This is what happens when profit motive is the driving force.

I don't like it. Seems stupid to penalize a team for playing too fast. If they aren't substituting, then the defense shouldn't have to.

If they were going to make a rule change, I would like to see incoming offensive subs have to touch the hashmark before playing. That way, both the offense and the defense has to travel the same amount of distance to sub. This prevents the problem with offensive players subbing out on their sideline while defensive players have to run across the whole field.
