Rule changes

The following rule changes have been recommended by the NCAA Basketball Rules Committee to the Playing Rules Oversight Panel for the 2021–22 season:^[1]

• Flopping can result in a technical foul.
• Increase to six personal fouls before disqualification, with a maximum of four fouls allowed per half (experimental in NIT for 2022). If a player commits four personal fouls in a single half they will be disqualified for the remainder of the game.
• Allowance at the league level for coaches to use technology, live statistics and video on the bench.
• Team timeouts can serve as/replace media timeouts (e.g., team calls timeout at the 18-minute mark in a half, that would be used as the under-16-minute media timeout).
• Shot clocks will now be able to display tenths of a second, similar to the NBA.

Season headlines

Two of the most significant developments impacting the 2021–22 season took place before the end of the 2020–21 school year, with one occurring before the start of the 2020–21 basketball season.

• On October 14, 2020, the NCAA announced that all student-athletes in winter sports during the 2020–21 school year, including men's and women's basketball, would receive an extra year of athletic eligibility.^[2]
• On April 15, 2021, the NCAA Division I Council adopted legislation that extended the so-called "one-time transfer exception" to all D-I sports, with the Division I Board of Directors ratifying this on April 28. This allows student-athletes in baseball, men's and women's basketball, football, and men's ice hockey to transfer one time without having to sit out a year, placing them under the same transfer regulations that previously applied to all other D-I sports.^{[3] [4]}

Other news:

• May 6 – The University of Hartford's governing board voted to begin the process of transitioning the school's athletic program from Division I to NCAA Division III. The plan calls for the following steps:^{[5] [6]}

  • 2022–23: No athletic scholarships will be awarded to incoming students.
  • 2023–24: Become a provisional member in a D-III conference to be determined; transition remaining students off athletic scholarships by the end of that school year

The university concluded that he failed to follow its guidelines and procedures in relation to the incident.^[10]
• July 30 – Oklahoma and Texas formally accepted invitations to join the Southeastern Conference following the 2024–25 season.^{[11] [12] [13] [14]}

All four schools were reportedly preparing membership applications, and their future entrance could be approved as early as the next scheduled meeting of Big 12 presidents on September 10. The entry timeline was uncertain at the time of the report, but would most likely be in 2024,^{[15] [16]} and on September 10 the four schools were officially announced as incoming Big 12 members no later than 2024–25.^[17]

At the time, some formal announcements of new members were expected on October 25, but a Marshall announcement was likely to wait until after announcing its new president on October 28. The report also indicated that the Sun Belt would expel its two full non-football members, Little Rock and UT Arlington, after the 2022–23 season.^[21]
• October 25 – The Associated Press preseason All-American team was released. Gonzaga forward Drew Timme was the lone unanimous selection (63 votes).

• October 26 – Southern Miss was officially announced as a Sun Belt member, effective no later than July 2023.^[23] In other Sun Belt realignment news, it was reported that Old Dominion's arrival would be announced later that week, and that James Madison's board had scheduled an emergency meeting on October 29 (presumably to discuss a Sun Belt invitation).^[24]
• October 27 – Old Dominion was officially announced as a Sun Belt member, also effective no later than July 2023. This marked ODU's return to that conference after an absence of more than 30 years.^[25]

C-USA had stated in late January that it expected the three departing schools to remain in the conference through 2022–23.^[44]
• February 20 – Michigan head coach Juwan Howard, upset with a time-out called by Wisconsin head coach Greg Gard as Wisconsin was leading by an insurmountable margin with about 30 seconds remaining, took a swing at a Wisconsin assistant coach in the handshake line after the game ended.^[45] It resulted in a brawl in which police officers had to separate players and coaches from both teams.^[45] The next day, Howard was suspended for the final five games of Michigan's regular season, with associate head coach Phil Martelli serving as interim head coach during Howard's suspension.^[46] Michigan players Moussa Diabaté and Terrance Williams II, as well as Wisconsin player Jahcobi Neath, all also received one-game suspensions for their roles in the brawl.^[46]

• March 1 – While not directly related to basketball, the Sun Belt Conference's release of its 2022 football schedule notably included all three schools set to move from C-USA (Marshall, Old Dominion, Southern Miss). The SBC release did not mention the ongoing dispute between C-USA and the three schools, or the prospect of those schools being unable to join for the 2022–23 school year.^[50]

The Knights, in their second year of a four-year transition from Division II, will be ineligible for the NCAA tournament or NIT until the 2024–25 season; under ASUN rules, the conference's automatic bid went to Jacksonville State, which had the best regular-season conference record. Bellarmine became the first D-I men's team in at least the last 25 years to win its conference tournament while being ineligible for the NCAA tournament.^[84]

Upsets

An upset is a victory by an underdog team. In the context of NCAA Division I men's basketball, this generally constitutes an unranked team defeating a team currently ranked in the top 25. This list will highlight those upsets of ranked teams by unranked teams as well as upsets of No. 1 teams. Rankings are from the AP poll. Bold type indicates winning teams in "true road games"—i.e., those played on an opponent's home court (including secondary homes).
