Sorry, I'm Old School More Jump Balls

Frankly, I dislike the AP.

There are many times when the defense is not rewarded for its good play, and a tie-up or other possible change of possession ends with the team who made a good play not getting a chance at the ball. O als believe in some situations it can reduce fouling at the end of games, since the defense has a shot to get the ball under conditions where it now has noi chance to get it, so you foul for the ball.

The NBA, who I believe has the best rule set in basketball, still has jump balls, and I believe they use them well. I hope FED and NCAA change their direction on this issue.
