NCAA Committees Recommend Coach’s Challenges for Basketball Video Reviews

Proposals aim to improve game flow and consistency, pending June 10 approval for 2025-26 implementation.

Overview

  • The NCAA Men’s and Women’s Basketball Rules Committees proposed requiring coach’s challenges to initiate video reviews for specific calls, including out-of-bounds plays.
  • The men’s proposal mandates teams have a timeout to challenge, with successful challenges granting an additional one and failed challenges forfeiting further attempts.
  • The women’s proposal does not require a timeout but penalizes failed challenges with an administrative technical foul.
  • Additional rule changes include modifications to continuous motion, shot clock resets, and conduct regulations, aimed at enhancing game flow and fairness.
  • The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel will review the recommendations on June 10, with potential implementation in the 2025-26 season.
