Do you think the defender should have to get there early enough to have time to look down and make sure he doesn't put a foot on the line? If so, the dribblers must be a lot slower than when I played.

Z, that's too E-Z!

If a coach can teach his defender to step OOB to cut off the dribbler's path, then he can most assuredly teach him that it's against the rules to step OOB, "So don't do it."
If a coach can teach a dribbler not to step oob, she can teach a defender not to. It's not really that difficult of a concept.
