BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich. (AP) – John Calipari says shortening the shot clock to 30 seconds won’t have any impact on college basketball.
Roy Williams echoed that sentiment, if a bit less forcefully, and John Beilein figures the adjustment should be easy enough.
At a golf event Monday that included some of the game’s most successful coaches, the reaction to a reduced shot clock was tame. The NCAA Men’s Basketball Rules Committee has recommended shortening the shot clock from 35 to 30 seconds, a change that still has to be approved by the Playing Rules Oversight Committee.
Williams says it’s no big deal. He remembers when the shot clock was lowered from 45 seconds to 35, and he’s not sure going from 35 to 30 will change much.
