They don't meet the 2016 standards because they don't have to. Most of the players meet whatever is the minimum. They will be fine. Athletes have been coddled for decades. This won't change anything.
I agree to a point. Late bloomers and those stuck in bad high school environments will be challenged. Increase the standard and you will increase the number who don't meet it. This issue is how many more and we won't know until we get close.

But they have also thrown in an "academic redshirt" so many of those players will still be allowed to go to college on scholarship, but not be allowed to play as a freshman. Most of them would not have played anyway.
