An innovative idea. produced and implemented by members of the Minnesota State University, Mankato Department of Athletics during the course of the 2009-10 basketball season, has been adopted by the NCAA.

A NCAA story on the tape, authored by David Pickle, says "A clever idea developed at Minnesota State will be expanded into a Division II-wide reminder on the importance of maintaining a positive game environment.

The end product is a floor decal featuring the expression "Don't Cross the Line."  This summer, every Division II member institution and conference will receive two copies of the 50-foot-long, 4-inch-wide strips.  The decals may be applied as desired, although the length corresponds with the baseline on a basketball court."
