6.8 will no longer be considered a great time for D1 outfield unless a prospect is a truly great hitter. I stand by that.

There is a big difference between saying that 6.8 is not a "great time", and that saying that "6.8 is not a D1 prospect anymore", which you stated a few posts above.

6.8 is plenty fast, and won't disqualify for any D1 program, let alone a mid/low tier program, of which there are many. It goes w/o saying that you have to be able to play baseball, also. I don't think that it makes a difference if you are a 6.5-6.6 if you can't play. There might be room a large D1 roster for a couple of "speed projects", but that's about it.
