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.

The $2000 is going to divide college athletics right down the middle. Because of Title IX, if you give the $2000, you've got to give it evenly to male and female athletes. Do teams in the Southland Conference have a million bucks available to pay their athletes? If not, then getting an "athletic scholarship" can mean two different things.
One effect of this may be to make the "preferred walk on" option more enticing to those whose other offers are to schools without the stipend. Walk on and earn a scholarship, and you get back the amount you spent on tuition and then some.
