Resetting the shot clock to 20 seconds when the ball is inbounded in the front court after a foul or violation ( ex. kicked ball ) by the defense. If there are more than 20 seconds on the shot clock in this situation, the shot clock will not be reset. Previously the shot clock was reset to the full 30 seconds regardless of the time remaining on the shot clock. Allow referees to use instant replay in the final 2 : 00 of the second half and / or overtime to determine if a secondary defensive player was either inside or outside of the restricted arc. If the defender was inside the arc, a blocking foul will be called. If the defender is outside of the restricted area, then a player control foul ( charge ) will be called. Require a minimum of 0.3 seconds to be taken off the game clock when the ball is legally touched on a throw - in or other situation. Make throw - in spots more consistent in the front court. Redefine a `` legal screen '' to require the inside of the screener 's feet be no wider than his shoulders. Season headlines May 9, 2017 -- The Missouri Valley Conference ( MVC ) announced that it extended an invitation to Valparaiso University to take effect July 1, with negotiations between the parties ongoing. Under its terms, the Crusaders would replace Wichita State University, departing on the same date for the American Athletic Conference. May 10 -- The NCAA announced its Academic Progress Rate ( APR ) sanctions for the 2017 -- 18 school year. A total of 17 programs in 9 sports were declared ineligible for postseason play due to failure to meet the required APR benchmark, including the following four Division I men 's basketball teams : Alabama A&M Grambling State Savannah State SE Missouri St. May 25 -- The MVC officially announced Valparaiso would join on July 1, as reported earlier in the month. June 15 -- Following a prolonged investigation into the Louisville program, after claims by a self - described madam that she had provided strip shows and sex parties at the Cardinals ' team residence, Minardi Hall, for Cardinals players and prospective recruits, the NCAA announced the following penalties, subject to a planned appeal by Louisville : Four years of probation. A reduction of four scholarships in all over the probation period, with Louisville choosing when to take the reductions. Former director of basketball operations Andre McGee, who was found to have paid $10,000 from 2010 to 2014 in exchange for the parties, received a 10 - year show - cause penalty. Head coach Rick Pitino was suspended for the Cardinals ' first five ACC games in the coming season. Louisville was required to forfeit all money received from conference revenue sharing stemming from its appearances in the 2012 -- 2015 NCAA tournaments. All players who participated in the parties and played for Louisville were held to be ineligible. The school had 45 days to provide the NCAA with a list of games affected, and was to vacate any games in which ineligible players were involved. This would potentially cost Louisville its 2013 national championship and 2012 Final Four appearance ; should the title be vacated, Louisville would become the first Division I basketball champion ( for either sex ) to be stripped of its title. June 28 -- The Horizon League announced that IUPUI would move from the Summit League to replace Valparaiso effective July 1. August 24 -- The University of Alaska Anchorage announced that the Great Alaska Shootout, which the school had hosted since 1978 and was the longest - running regular - season college basketball tournament, would be discontinued after this season. September 26 -- The office of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York announced that 10 individuals, including assistant coaches at Arizona, Auburn, Oklahoma State, and USC, had been arrested on federal corruption charges. The accused were allegedly part of a scheme by which coaches accepted bribes to steer NBA - bound college players toward certain agents and financial advisers. Court documents also allege that an apparel company later identified as Adidas paid $100,000 to the family of an unnamed player to ensure his signing with an unnamed school that was later identified as Louisville. September 27 -- In the first major fallout from the breaking bribery scandal, Louisville placed head coach Rick Pitino on unpaid administrative leave and athletic director Tom Jurich on paid administrative leave. Media reports indicated that both would be formally fired once contractual issues were sorted out. September 28 -- CBS News reported that Rick Pitino was the Louisville coach identified in court documents as `` Coach - 2 '', who was alleged to have spoken several times with an Adidas executive in the attempt to pay the family of a recruit in exchange for the player attending Louisville.
