Default Re: Dick Vitale foul proposal

Intuitively, I think this would mean more big men sitting than guards. Big men are easier to 'target' on the defensive end.

Certainly teams would sit anyone that wasn't a major offensive threat. Guys like Ben Wallace and Bruce Bowen would be benched while pure scorers would remain on the court.

Best player to sit would be, I guess, Ben Wallace, Andrei Kirilenko types that are amazing defenders but mediocre scorers.

P.S: I think the idea that college games should increase their foul limit to 6 is stupid. They have 5 fouls for a 40 minute game, the NBA has 6 for a 48 minute game. Makes sense to me.
