Refs cheer new high-def replay system for NCAA tournaments






The NCAA is going all in on high-def video reviews during March Madness.



For the men's and women's basketball tournaments that begin this week, the NCAA for the first time will use a replay system that captures live high-definition video from multiple angles for immediate review. That means officials will be able to see much more quickly some of the same replays everyone is seeing on TV - and just maybe some of those delays to get a call right won't be so long.



Kim Jackson is director of basketball operations for DVSport, the system's developer. He says the goal is to avoid changing the momentum of the game.



With the DVSport system already used by several leagues during the season, game officials generally have instant access to the main TV feed and three other angles.
