A lot basketball folk think college needs to get rid of the 3-point line...players aren't good enough to defend it and the entire college game is played on the perimeter.

Just motion set screens along the 3-point line and teams just bombing away - the paint isn't even attempted to shoot from unless it's a wide-open layup.

So go ahead, bomb away from 30 feet away but it will only count as 2-points again. We're no longer going to differentiate points on the floor based on where you scored them.

You want high % work your way closer to the basket, it's called basketball - bring the effort to create a high % shot back into the game.

For example, Virginia would probably be playing Georgetown tonight for the right to play Gardner-Webb. LSU would be playing like, ETSU tonight.

So Virginia a 1 seed would have to play a semi decent Big East team but LSU gets to play the 3rd place team in the Southern Conference?

The 3pt shot is the great equalizer in college basketball and it is what allows the little guys to upset a big boy

1) Reviews get a 60 second clock...if the evidence is not clear after 60 seconds the call automatically stands.

2) Teams need to go to the opposite end of the court during reviews so it doesn't act as a free timeout

3) Shots from the other side of half court count for 4 pts

The no shot clock for an on the floor foul is an even bigger problem. Now you’re actually putting major consequences in the hands of basketball officials.
Fair point.

Not if they win the ACC tournament.

Also, what we’re talking about is a ~21seed. I think even UVA can handle it.

Widen the court to 60’ and move the line to 23’9” (NBA range) all the way around.

Instead of having all of the first 4 games in Dayton every year I'd do two each in an east and west location and try to mix it up.
