Do you know their new reasoning JR?
It was on their rules questionaire they put out a while ago. But my guess is mostly that it's a fasion thing. And there will be a large number of respondants who will say they want to move the rebounders up just because the NCAA does it. It's the same mindless mentality that leads to wreck league players who will to fight you to the death to stand on the block. Like it matters.

And some morons will be pontificating about how "if we're going to prepare athletes to compete at the next level then they need to playing by the same rules because it's too hard to make the adjustment when they get there." As if

And it'll happen.

But you just watch. The rules about marking the lane lines will not change. Ever. Because the rules committee at least knows that soon enough somebody will want to change it all up again.
