NCAA Announces New Rule Changes for Men's and Women's Basketball
- On Tuesday, new rules were approved to improve the pace of men's and women's college basketball, set to take effect in the 2025-26 season.
- The changes follow concerns about game pace and incorporate new rules like coach's challenges, expanded foul options, and potential shift from halves to quarters.
- Key updates include coaches being allowed one challenge per game for calls such as out-of-bounds and restricted-area fouls, with a successful challenge granting one additional review.
- Referees can now penalize contact to the groin with a Flagrant 1 foul, which awards the offended team two free throws and possession, offering a middle ground between a common foul and an automatic ejection.
- These adjustments aim to improve game flow and officiating consistency, while the NCAA seeks feedback on possibly moving the men's game to quarters in future seasons.
