I don't think I'm cynical. I think I'm just observing. It seems obvious to me that -- for whatever reason -- the women's committee wants their game to look and feel like the pro game. I'm not judging it. I just think they've been gradually going that way for a long time, and they might as well just adopt the NBA or WNBA manual.

Look, as I've said before, I wouldn't care if the NCAA went to the NBA rules and mechanics in one fell swoop. I've worked NBA rules and mechanics and I love them (except for the Lead's coverage area). But it seems to me that -- again, for whatever reason -- the men's committee wants to keep its game distinctive and separate from the pro game, while the women's committee wants to go the opposite way.
