The only thing we were slow on was the ten-second count and I don't know how much of a difference it's going to make. Realistically, how many ten-second violations are called in NCAAM? Getting two in the same NCAA tourney game this season may have been the first two I've seen in years.
I have had 3 or 4 in a season in college games. Some teams put full court pressure can cause this violation like other violations. And with these kinds of situations I do not see why it is a big deal to have separate rules. They have separate committees, why is it a big deal to have separate rulebooks? There are separate CCA Manuals.

Good for the NBA. College players are not NBA players. Just like college players should not play under many NFL rules as well. Then again that is a personal opinion.
