How expensive is it to draw a line on the floor?

Another new rule:



The panel approved a proposal where players will be assessed a technical foul should they use derogatory language about an opponent’s race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, gender expression, gender identify, sexual orientation or disability.


Can you still trash talk an opponents mama? More seriously, I thought the trash talk covered by this rule was already a technical foul. This really seems like social justice pandering, but I guess it makes the NCAA feel better about itself.

Its not the first time the NCAA has tried social justice engineering.

Have I ever mentioned I hate those pricks.
