New NCAA Basketball Rules Changes: Purdue Says Thanks!

Earlier this week the NCAA changes the rules for basketball. It seems to be in effort to make the game more like the NBA, which is a terrible idea if that is the goal. The NBA is hardly even basketball at this point, so the further that college basketball stays from it, the better.

But there were complaints that the pace of games was not fast enough. There was a certain flow with the media timeouts and everything, but people complained about too many timeouts at the end of games (which isn't even close to the plodding, glacial pace at which NBA games end).
