The 2017 NIT tournament will be played under experimental rules that are nothing short of bizarre.
After every 10 minutes of game play, team fouls will be reset to zero and there will be no bonus free throws.
Here is a summary of the changes from the NCAA:
The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel has approved experimental rules that will reset team fouls to zero at the end of 10-minute segments of each half in the upcoming 2017 NIT postseason tournament.
The panel also approved experimental rules that will reset the shot clock to 20 seconds instead of 30 seconds at times when the ball is inbounded in the front court during games in the NIT.
