Pleased with recent changes that have boosted offense, the NCAA basketball rules committee chose not to propose any drastic moves for next season such as breaking the men's game into four quarters, pushing back the 3-point line or widening the lane.
The committee did encourage conferences and tournaments to experiment with some of those alterations as a way to get a handle on the possible effects they would have on a game they feel is trending in the right direction.
"Officiating continues to emphasize freedom of movement, physicality and free flow of the game," Duquesne coach Keith Dambrot, the committee chairman, said Friday.
