College Basketball May Move to Quarters

Indiana and Tom Crean may get to experiment playing games with quarters instead of the traditional halves.

Why does Indiana get to experiment this before Kentucky and many others?

The NCAA has announced that in this years NIT they will be experimenting with quarters. They will be 10 minute quarters. The women's game already has this in place for many years, and the men’s side has flirted with the idea of following suit.

Along with the announcement of the quarters, the NCAA will also try a 20-second shot clock when the ball is inbounded in the front court.
