Every year the NCAA Basketball Rules Committee takes a look at what can be done to improve the college game and how it is played.  Some rules — extending out the 3-point line by an additional 12 inches for the women and addressing the charge zone under the basket for the men — will see some testing during exhibition games this upcoming season. Another rule that received some significant discussion, but which did not make it into the experimental stage, was the 10-second backcourt rule for the women’s game.

But this year, head coaching positions at D-I Indiana programs are pretty solid with the support staff making the moves.
