The NCAA Basketball Rules Committee announced several changes that will take affect in the 2017-18 season, and in case you missed them I will list them below.
- Extend the coach's box to 38 feet. The coach's box in previous years was 28 feet, but NCAA Men's Basketball Rules Committee members believe this will allow coaches to improve communication with their teams, especially when the teams are at the opposite end of the court. Author’s Note: I think this will also reduce technical fouls as coaches will use this change to go further on court to argue calls as well.
