Three point line distance change

[RaceToTheTop 31,351]

NCAA moves three point line back to international distance.

IMO, it's a good move.  I don't really care how it effects us....we couldn't hit the shorter shot and unless things change, we aren't going to hit the longer shot either.  But the three point shot has simply become too big of a part of the college game.

Yes yes yes. This was overdue. Granted, it will likely benefit the more athletic teams initially like Kentucky and SEC teams.

I, too, don’t care how we are initially effected. The game will be better in the long run.

Fine with me.

May even benefit us initially. We dont have shooters and maybe the adjustment period hurts our opponents %.

No effect on IU, we can't even shoot free throws.  Maybe it'll hurt our opponents though.

My thoughts exactly, we don't shoot it Well and it will make it harder for others. Should bring us closer to opponents.

College athletes are getting faster and stronger. This makes sense from a floor spacing perspective.

How does it affect the pack line?

Probably result in better looks from 3. 

Curious if the pack line defense is used anywhere overseas

Curious how long it took for % and attempts to return to its previous level back when the line was moved from 19'9" to 20'9".

Seems like it was 8 years to get a comparable %

can't imagine how they can move it back in the corners unless they widen the court too.  Might make shooting from the corner all that more appealing if it stays the same distance.

Never even thought about that aspect
