So like Eddie Lacy then



Hinders Saban from going after kids like Lacy and Sentimore in LA. I don't think it will hurt LSU that much considering how much Miles has scaled back on going after grade risks. Now if the kid in question happens to be Johnny 5-star then that's a different story and this kid will get lots of attention to ensure he makes the grade.

Multi-year scholarships immediately puts even more pressure on coaches to accurately ID talent. The combo of offering players earlier than ever these days to keep up with other schools... plus multi-year schollies just made things that much tougher.

Increasing academic requirements hurts schools who recruit in the deep south as much or more so than other areas.

LSU has a large number of players who would not be playing right now with new academic recs.

This too makes recruiting tougher.

Everyone will have to adjust to them, but if I had to pick one conference this will impact the most it is the SEC based on how we presently recruit and manage our rosters.

The $2000 per athlete will just be passed on to season ticket holders. Lovely.
