NCAA may move back 3-point line by foot

INDIANAPOLIS — College basketball players might want to start polishing up their long-range shooting. The men's basketball rules committee approved a measure Thursday that would move the 3-point line back one foot in 2008-09 — 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 alteration to the 3-point shot since its inception in 1986-87.

That's pretty cool, but still a lot smaller than in the NBA. :/
