The General and I will agree that the 3 point shot has ruined college hoops

Coach R.M. Knight and myself agree here.

What is your opinion of the 3 point shot in college hoops?

Thanks

I agree with THE GENERAL and the GENERAL on this one.

The concept is a joke for college hoops. Where is the common sense? Guess I just need to step outside to understand the ignorance.

Without question it has...along with too many teams aking postseason..anyone remember when one team from each conference went to the big dance, and the conference tourney meant everything? Those were the days..

No shot clock as well... Phil Ford, Carolina four corners, no dunking, Bill Walton, UCLA, undefeated Indiana 1976 season...Al McGuire, Marquette, John Wooden...Ok I am done my rant! Just glad i was around to have seen it...

Short jump shot that keeps the game close and/or gives teams the ability to come back from being behind quickly. All done to put more fans in the seats and provide more dollars for the schools as well as the NCAA. Ruined the beauty of the game however, plus gives many of today's players the misconception that they are good shooters and many never learn to drive to the hoop and are not prepared to move to the next level.

I wanna go back to where you work for a bucket. Remember that? Work your ass off now to get 2 pointer high % shot and 5 secs later a drained 3 has you losing. I don't like it.

Shot is OK but move the line back. Top of the key jumpers should not be rewarded with 3

Why dont we give 5 points for halfcourt shots and longer as long as were changing the rules of the game.

I would also like to see 3 seconds in the lane abolished.

Think also maybe a player should be limited to only a maximum of two dribbles per possession.

In College they should make an NBA 3 , a 4 point shot, and further out a 5 pointer. Why the hell not?? Then imagine all the BAD BEATS there would be,lol.
