INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The NCAA would scrap a rule prohibiting men's and women's basketball teams from playing in more than two exempt tournaments in a four-year period under a compromise reached Sunday by the Division I Management Council.
The proposal, one of about 140 heard during the NCAA convention, will be sent to member schools and conferences for comment before it is considered again in April, when the council will make its recommendation to the board of directors, said David Berst, NCAA Division I vice president.
Under the plan, the two-in-four rule would be eliminated and schools would be allowed to participate in an event each year, but in the same event only once in four years.
