Dick Vitale wants to slow down the 3-point takeover

The 3-point shot has been around in college basketball since 1986, so why are players just now falling in love with it?

The Golden State Warriors’ all-star point guard absolutely took over the league with his lights out shooting from deep, and ever since the game has been changed. From the NBA to college hoops and even high school, more and more players are shooting threes.

Dick Vitale has had enough of it.

The college team that has brought this to the light this tournament has been Villanova. The Wildcats blew the Kansas Jayhawks away in their Final Four victory this past weekend behind a record-breaking performance of 13 threes in the first half.
