The NCAA has been considering many new changes for this upcoming season, changes ranging from rules about player interactions and shot clock rule changes. However, the biggest possible change they are considering is the potential to push the three-point line to meet international regulation length, which could affect the Indiana basketball program in a few ways.
The traditional three-point line has measured out at 20 feet and 9 inches in recent years, but the NCAA’s new proposal would push the three-point arc out to 22 feet and 1 and 3/4 inches, extending it nearly 17 inches farther than the current distance.
