May 3, 200719 yr LINK After years of study and consideration, the Men's Basketball Rules Committee voted to recommend extending the three-point line to 20 feet, 9 inches starting with the 2008-09 season. Here we go!
May 3, 200719 yr We have been over this before. I do not like it. I believe if it aint broke then why fix it. I think the NCAA should have experimented with this in the early season tourneys first before implementing it into a fulltime rule.

Various early season tournaments have been experimenting with it for a few years now...
May 3, 200719 yr Various early season tournaments have been experimenting with it for a few years now... Which ones have? I cant remember any. Has UK done this at all?
May 3, 200719 yr Great!! The old line is to close, but I hope they leave High School the way it is. Most players shoot from that far out anyway.
May 3, 200719 yr Which ones have? I cant remember any. Has UK done this at all? I'm not sure of specifics and I'll see what I can find when I get home. I know I've seen it used several times over the last two years...
May 3, 200719 yr Also listed in there... Free Throw Change The committee also voted to alter its free throw alignment. This change will eliminate the first lane space nearest the basket on each side of the lane and using the present second, third and fourth lane space on each side of the lane as an alignment for free throws.
May 3, 200719 yr I am so glad they are changing the 3 point line... it is way too close right now, imo.
May 3, 200719 yr Which ones have? I cant remember any. Has UK done this at all? I pretty sure UK did two years ago in the tournament where we lost to Iowa and then beat West Virginia. I just remember for that tourmament we played our first two games at Rupp and it had that new 3 point line for it...
May 3, 200719 yr Replacing lines for tournaments would not be a great idea. Consider the cost of sanding, removing paint and refinishing, just for a couple of games?!
