Don't get bent out of shape: the NCAA is looking at changing the goaltending rule, but it isn't anything drastic.
The NCAA is looking at making any touching of the ball after it has been banked off the glass a goaltending violation. Currently, if the ball hits the backboard but is still going up (like on a layup), it can be touched and not ruled goaltending.
Doesn't seem like a major deal, but it will make those borderline calls much easier to make.
Also, the NCAA is looking at requiring making the home team wear white/light uniforms and the road team wearing dark uniforms ... or a switch if both teams agree. Currently, it was recommended but not required ... so you could have one team wearing orange and another wearing blue out on the court.
As of now, there are many proposals being discussed (including widening the free throw lane) but don't seem to have much support.
