Officials:

Please find attached a letter from the Chairs of the Oversight Committee, Competition Committee and Rules Committee.  They represent many of the stakeholders of the game.  The letter is a summary of the stats from the beginning of the season as well as a challenge to the officiating community to reduce physicality.

We are calling the directive to reduce physicality, but not to an acceptable level or to a level consistent with years past.

Please read this letter, accept the challenge and tighten up on calling obvious physicality fouls consistently.

Best regards,

J.D. Collins
NCAA National Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Officiating
