Proposed rule changes( coaching challenges)

Having 16 TOs in a 40 minute game is not 'limited'.

Ok, perhaps a poor word.  My point is there are many games where a team is looking at the prospect of running out of timeouts or is conserving timeouts in a close game and suddenly they gat a freebie because the shot clock might have been off by a second.

Actually both teams get freebies.

You were clear on your point, Romey and I agreed with it. I was just bein' smarky cuz it's a day that ends with 'y'.

The reviews have neve bothered me. Id rather get it right

You also watch a lot of games on delay, so you can fast forward thru reviews.  They're annoying as heck when watching live.

Excellent point.  Of course often, one team does not want the clock to stop.

Done deal.

It will essentially be the NBA rule, although college coaches won't be able to challenge foul calls. And it will eliminate the numerous reviews of out-of-bounds calls that have slowed the last 2 minutes of almost every game to a crawl.

Refs will still be able to review timing issues, whether or not a shot was a 3, etc.

The problem isn't with that "one" call ... it's the 5 or 8 or 10 stoppages to review every out of bounds play and/or every tenth of a second on the clock. And then sometimes they STILL get it wrong.

The end of almost every remotely close game is a barely watchable slog

And it especially seems to affect the games prior to MU games!
