WVSports - Adjustments coming with officiating this season

It isn’t a rules year when it comes to college hoops, but there will be things that are going to be enforced differently

I like these adjustments, this should clean up the game somewhat.

More stupid meddling by administrators. The more subjective things become...the more inconsistent they become.

 

[MichiganHerd]

Terrible. What's this called anyways? LeFlop James rule?

No it won't. They already had the flop rule and it failed badly. All this does is give officials more control over a game and makes it longer.

Absolutely correct.

That is something I welcome.

That is something I welcome.

So you don't mind officials slanting calls to one side or the other based off their own opinion or perhaps conference favorite. Whistles by officials should never interfere with game flow. Hope you enjoy those 75 foul shots and 4 1/2 hour games.

You are assuming incorrectly that the officials are biased.

I'm guessing you have never watched a basketball game in your life.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Games will average 2:30 hours. Officials micro-managing calls that don't matter.

 

[WVU_Dave]

They did a nice job adjusting a catch to an incomplete today with video that typically would be inconclusive when originally called a catch.

You would be wrong on that instance, but guessing is a hard thing to be right about.
