Moving the 3 point line back....YAWN

Well, the NCAA made a big deal about moving the three point line back a little bit. And the effect on college basketball--minimal, if any.

The most telling statistic--42% of the teams in D1 shot better under the new line than under the old line. Obviously, 57% got worse, but you could have had these numbers if you had kept the same line.

Overall, the national percentage of made three-pointers fell less than one percent. Teams also tried about one 3-pointer less per game.

That's it.

With shooters the way they are, if you are going to impact 3-point shooting, you are going to have to do some serious moving.

The MAC was very similar. 5 of 12 teams got better and 7 got worse. BG did shoot better under the new line (35.3%) than the old line (31.6%)
