Big Ten and Mid-American conference games may be just a little bit longer for the 2016-17 basketball season.
The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel agreed to expand the use of instant replay on some plays within the restricted area arc for league games this season. Coaches will be able to challenge charge/block rulings they believe to be erroneous, BUT THERE ARE CONDITIONS:
- Instant replay can be used only in the last two minutes of the second half or the last two minutes of any overtime period.
- Instant replay may be used only when an official has made a block/charge call in or around the restricted area arc, and the decision is based on whether the defensive player was in or outside the arc.
