Actually, I think they're adjusting faster than I expected. Thad Matta, OSU's coach, said he likes the new rules and emphasis and prefers this flow of the game, so it's not just negative from the coaching ranks.

The acid test will be once conference play starts in earnest in january, let's see if they continue to call it tight or revert back to previous norms.
