Balta1701 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 The Mens College B-Ball 3 point line is moving back 1 foot, from 19 feet, 9 inches, to 20 feet 9 inches. The NBA line sits at 23 feet 9 inches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonik22 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I'm unsure on this one, but this should be a good thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Not a fan of this. The college game needs to be left alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Good move, now it's only about a foot short of where it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AssHatSoxFan Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 i dont understand why they dont just adopt the international distance which is just 3 inches closer or go back closer to the NBA line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo's Drinker Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Bad for mid majors, they seem to work their game aroudn the 3 point line. It will open the middle more for post players now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 The NBA line is 22 feet in the corners and 23'9 everywhere else IIRC. I think they should make the college line 22 feet all around the court. It needs to be moved back though, these games often turn into 3 point contests now and that's no good.

ZoomSlowik Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I like it, there is a very heavy reliance on the 3 in college and this will make it a little harder to make while also creating some more room to run the offense. 19'9" is just too close. The really good shooters will be virtually unaffected, but it will deter a fair number of the more marginal shooters and hopefully reduce the number of teams that take over 40% of their shots from outside (that's just a ridiculous total IMO).
