Overview
- The June 10 measures take effect next season and empower coaches to challenge out-of-bounds calls, basket interference or goaltending rulings and restricted-area violations with a timeout.
- A successful challenge yields one additional review opportunity for the remainder of the game, while a failed challenge ends a team’s right to further challenges.
- Officials maintain authority to initiate replay on timing, scoring and flagrant fouls and can review certain plays in the final two minutes, but out-of-bounds disputes late in games now require a coach’s challenge.
- Other approved tweaks include an optional Flagrant 1 foul for groin contact and a continuous motion adjustment that lets players complete their step and shot after absorbing contact.
- The NCAA is gathering feedback from Division I conferences on a potential shift from two halves to four quarters to better align with other basketball levels.
