SANDESTIN, Fla. -- Auburn Tigers coach Gus Malzahn called the new NCAA rule limiting the number of people on headsets during games "a joke" that will have an impact on the quality of the game.
Earlier this month, the NCAA passed legislation that will cap the number of people on headsets to 20, including 15 coaches.
"The 20 headset rule is a joke," Malzahn said on Wednesday at SEC Spring Meetings. "There's no doubt about it. I think that's got the ability to hurt our game. That's a really big deal."
Malzahn's comments came a day after Alabama coach Nick Saban questioned the rule as well.
