pretty darn interesting...
Three-point accuracy finished at 34.7%, the highest figure since 2008, which not coincidentally was the last season the 3-point line was at 19’ 9”. Two-point percentage finished at 48.7%. This is the highest since 2007, but that understates things. It’s actually a virtual tie with 2007 and from there you have to go to 1992 to find a better number. There were 71.6 points scored per 40 minutes of D-I on D-I action this season, the highest figure since the mid-90’s.
Nationally, turnovers were committed on 18.1 percent of possessions. That’s the lowest turnover rate in well, as far as we can go back. That would be 1993, the year that the NCAA started tracking turnovers nationwide.
There were 19.2 fouls per team per 40 minutes this season. That was a six percent increase form last season, but less than a two percent increase over 2003, the last season where average pace was at least 69 possessions per game. There will be more fouls called when there are more possessions, and once accounting for that, this season wasn’t terribly unusual, even with an emphasis on freedom of movement

I think the next big change will be after next year. I think it's almost a lock that we'll be going to quarters. I think we're going to see it tested in the NIT etc. next year, and then put in place for 2017-18.
