A) the 5-second closely guarded count should be maintained for NF games
B) the NF goal-tending rule should not be changed to the (men's) NCAA rule.
C) the 3 point arc should not be extended.
A) With the adoption of a shot clock this becomes less important. Easier to referee having less to do
B) Indifferent, may remove ambiguity around the rule for players and fans as they are more familiar with the NCAA rule.
C) Agreed
