It's a moot point anyways as I see the Fed quashing this one before it gets much further. It would be a far departure from their traditional stance on things.

I'm curious why some people would NOT be in favor of playing in halves by state adoption?

I am a bald old geezer and need a rest period at the mid-point of each half. Come to think of it I could use one at the mid-point of each quarter.

New rule idea: Game is to be played in eighths.

Thanks to everybody for voting. I find it very interesting that only one of the proposals has more than a 50% approval, and it's only a state adoption, not even an "across the board" change.

Maybe this year, we'll actually get NO changes!

Question

As far as instituting team control during the throw-in, what changes would this make to the game other than teams not being able to inbound into the back court from front court and having offensive fouls during a throw-in be non shooting? Can you guys come up with any more?

I believe the NCAA made an exception to either the TC rule or the backcourt rule to allow for the throw-in to go to the backcourt.

An additional effect is that if a throw-in is tipped, but not controlled, there will be TC in the case of a stoppage requiring POI.

You can throw into the backcourt in NCAA even though there is TC.

Yep, because the FC is defined by the IB playing court, OOB is neither FC or BC for either team.
