I don't know, BNR. If by "folks," you mean fans, then I think this doesn't make their radars. (I say the number one fans' desired change is a national shot clock.) If you mean coaches, maybe, but my best guess is most are indifferent to this. If you mean officials, then I doubt it, as it's just another thing we'd have to think about, and most of us would say we have enough as it is.
Getting back to the shot clock, a backcourt-count rule change would be far more easily enforced if there were a shot clock nationwide. If you get a shot clock first, then I think we could make this change more effectively.
