This just means a lot of kids from the south won't be going to big time football schools. The JUCOs are gonna love it.

IMO it just means the kids and their high schools will adjust to meet the new standards. Which is not a bad thing. Won't keep anyone who really deserves a college education from getting one.

Not really. The entry requirements are the same as now, but if you don't meet the new standards you have to redshirt. Unless the school has some policy not to take academic redshirts, they can still get in. The B1G is arrogant enough to implement a league wide rule like that though I have no idea if they will.
