College Basketball and the 3-Pointer

The three point shot has gotten out of control in college basketball and the line needs to be moved a lot closer to where the pro line is. I couldn't find where I read it, but I read somewhere last year that the percentage of total shots taken that are three pointers has increased over the years to some ungodly number in the 40% range. That's ridiculous. One of the things that has kept college basketball fun to watch is that team's still run an offense and play a team game. Anymore it seems like I'm watching little more than a three pointer contest. It's definitely taking away from the game, IMO.
