New rules approved for college hoops

I think I like these, but I'm not sure. Fewer TO's is a blessing for sure.

The NCAA formally voted into effect on Monday major rule changes that will alter the way men's college basketball is played.

These changes -- most notably a 30-second shot clock, down from 35 -- were put forth by the men's basketball rules committee three weeks ago.

Among the suggestions:

So the sport will see a wider arc underneath the rim, an emphasis on foul calls in an effort to clean the game up and allow for more freedom of movement, and all timeouts called within 30 seconds of an impending media timeout will then become said media timeout.

In addition to the overall reduction of timeouts (four timeouts instead of five; three can be saved for the second half) and the change to the shot clock.

Fewer timeouts would be great if they were taking away media timeouts instead of team timeouts. At least they sort of compromised there. It seems silly to award ESPN the same number of timeouts per game as BOTH coaches combined.
