NCAA To Move Back 3-Point Line In 2008
3rd May, 2007 - 1:50 pm
AP -

Two decades after adding the 3-point line, the NCAA men's basketball rules committee approved a measure Thursday that will move the line back one foot -- from 19 feet, 9 inches to 20 feet, 9 inches. If approved by the playing rules oversight committee on May 25, it would mark the first major change to 3-pointers since their adoption.

The change would not take place until November 2008.

I like that, because the college 3 is what 4 feet closer than the nba 3?
It isn't a true indicator of NBA 3 point prowess, not that this one will be either, but its better.

I always gotta kick outta guys shooting from 3 feet behind the college line anyway. It just looks badass on TV.

Where do you start measuring from. I just measured in an elementary gym at a school I work at and I was thinking this can't be where this line is at.

I think it's measure diagnolly from the floot to the front of the rim.

I think it's measure diagnolly from the floor to the front of the rim.

Good idea. This can only help the quality of long range shooters in the future.
