IMO there's better criteria to determine whether a student is ready for college but that's a whole other discussion.
And what would that be?
Kurt Vonneguts Harrison Bergeron keeps coming to fruition along with scores of other fortune tellers.

We should be adding more standardized tests, not taking them away.

I think what’s going on is that the NCAA is adjusting to the Universities removing testing from their admissions standards.

The ncaa hasn't had a mission that involved academics in at least 30 years. This is just making it official. It's nfl lite

This is the NCAA finally bending over and officially declaring itself the NFL minor league. Which it always kind of was anyway... but now it seems official.
Nope. This is nothing like the NFL.
This is like MLB with no luxury tax and no firm restrictions on player movement.

Very hypocritical. If the average student has it as a requirement, why not the athletes? Doesn't that contradict the mission of the NCAA?
Several schools have started removing standardized test scores as a requirement for admission for students.

The movement is to drop it for the general student as well. Honestly, there is some merit to dropping the tests. The cottage industry that has developed around those tests skews scores and the tests' utility in indicating success or failure in college has been tenuous at best.

Also you can't expect people to live up to a standard. What is this Nazi Germany?

Standardized test scores will be replaced with ESG scores.
