Yes, they did. They introduced the concept of a player's "cylinder", within which a player with the ball is allowed to make any "basketball move". If there is contact with a defender within that cylinder during a normal basketball move, the defender is responsible for the contact.
This is obviously a direct contradiction of the previous rules on F1 fouls for moving elbows.
Somebody else will have to post the NCAA citation, as I don't have my new books yet.
