Yeah, but then what we'd have to do is change the basic definition of team control. And I don't think too many people really want to do that. In the NBA, team control ends with the defensive deflection, and that's obviously not the rule in NCAA. So you'd have to re-write one of the basic rules of the game. I don't think you're going to see much support for that any time soon. JMO.
