There is a very very real possibility that this team is left out of the NIT.

At least we might be able to participate in deciding the fate of some new rules.

Quote
Teams relegated to the NIT this season will have to play under experimental rules, including a 30-second shot clock and a 4-foot restricted area under the basket.

The NCAA says it is paring five seconds off the shot clock to see how it impacts pace and scoring totals. The arc is moving out a foot to examine how it changes the number of collisions under the basket by expanding the area in which charges usually cannot be drawn.

Coaches whose teams play in the tournament will be surveyed about their experience, and the men's basketball rules committee will look at all the data to consider future rule changes.

I agree that more drives to the basket and more shots would be an improvement but definitely both changes are negatives for bruceketball - we can barely protect the rim now with the smaller charge circle and the offense has a hard enough time generating a good shot now.

In 93-94 when the shot clock went down to 35 from 45, points per possession went down .9. I would be afraid of ton of coaches going to a soft press and than only have to defend for around 22 seconds. I think it would make the game even uglier.
