NCAA women's basketball rule changes will make for a different game

Just as they did on the men's side, the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel (NCAA PROP - are you kidding me?) for women's basketball adopted rules changes that will noticeably alter both the game and the fan experience.

Not wanting to be left behind by the men, the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel (PROP) for women's basketball announced rule changes for the upcoming season. Principal among them is the anticipated shift to four 10-minute quarters - a move that impacts not merely the general flow of the game but time outs, team fouls, and when teams reach the bonus.
