If you are not watching this show on B1G Network, you should. Love the analyst and the addition of John Beilein out of retirement.
Why we are seeing faster D1 games?
DEEP DIGITS D-I OFFENSE THIS SEASON
-68.8 POSSESSIONS PER GAME (MOST SINCE 2020-21)
- 104.7 PTS PER 100 POSS (HIGHEST THIS CENTURY)
- 50.3% 2-PT FG (HIGHEST THIS CENTURY)
- 17.5% TO RATE (LOWEST THIS CENTURY)
Why?
Changes to the charge rule (so little called)
Changes to the travel rule (so little called)
Changes to the 3 second rule (so little called)
More athletic 4’s that can rebound and shoot.
Things that they didn't discuss is the parity between teams because of the NIL/transfer portal. Would Kansas be ranked as high without adding a doofus guy from Michigan? Where would we be without the addition of Lance Jones? Would be a crime he doesn’t win B1G player of the week…..
This is why the games are either more enjoyable or less enjoyable for fans (I’m a half-full type of guy so I’m liking the rule change but the NIL/transfer portal will make it harder and more nail-biting for me as we wind up conference play heading to March.
Thoughts?
