The NCAA Rules Committee voted to recommend a move to a 30-second shot clock on Friday.
Currently, the sport uses a 35-second clock. The change is expected to increase scoring.
The committee also recommended changes to rules related to calling timeout, in an effort to reduce stoppages.
Teams will only get four timeouts instead of five, and only three can be carried into the second half. Officials will also make an effort to resume play faster after a timeout or a player fouling out.
