Having a shot clock in the news again. The CR Gazette had an article right after Christmas, and now a former high school and college coach is starting a campaign to have it added in Iowa.

I was originally in the camp of "we don't need it, just play better defense" but after watching games since Christmas with thought of how the shot clock would affect play, I've changed my mind. I think it would be good for both the boys and girls games, mostly for end-of-game situations. I've seen too many dribbling/passing exhibitions to stall out games, even when the defense is attempting to guard. Not that the opinions of fans, or even coaches, will cause the Association to change their mind, although his idea of a corporate sponsor for the shot clock might get the attention of the Boy$$$ in Boone.
