NCAA rule changes: Rules Committee Recommendations

[Texas Aggie]

Proposed NCAA rule "Coach the block came after it hit the glass... bucket".
Rule, leaves no room for discussion.

Dream on.

"No, it didn't."

Rebuttals to my initial answers don't generally get a reply from me. I answered the question & now I'm going the other way. The interaction has ended & if coach persists then I hit him/her with "You made your point now let's move on".
Further discussion on the same subject, well, that's what Ts are for.

Breakaway rims...are they talking about those rims you can pull down on and they just snap back that are currently installed on every basket in the world? And the NCAA is finally getting around to requiring them?

Or is it something else and I'm being dim witted (again)?

Edit: Okay, my bad. I looked it up and movable rings are not currently required in either HS or NCAA rules. I'd have bet $100 that they were.

Regarding the GT provision--I'm wondering if the official still must make a judgment that the ball has a chance to go in.

If so, there is still plenty of room for debate.

By FED rules "Coach I had a real good look & the ball was in it's downward flight after it hit the glass".
Judgement call, which can still be disputed after your explanation.

Hit the glass above the rim.
Is it the ball is completely above the rim, or just a bit above the rim (or square?), is the question.

And if a player hangs on the rim and decides not let go, is it just one T? Can he hang there all game? Go crazy kids!!
