The problem is that isn't true. They're used at every school in the ACC. i can assure you that no NCAA Tourney venue is as loud as Hansbrough Indoor Stadium when Carolina and Duke play. And it works just fine.

PTS is much more reliable than human timers starting and stopping the clock. The first two rounds of the tournament proved that out. As long as the batteries are fresh, there's rarely a problem.
