Yankees10 continually deletes sourced material, claiming it to lack notability. Perhaps he should do a little research as there have been at least 4 main links on the official Ok. State website concerning CFPA recognition of Oklahoma State players in the past 12 months. Or perhaps we could also focus on the fact that 2 players from Oklahoma State won CFPA trophies, and both presentations were nationally televised. http://www.okstate.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/011210aaa.html http://www.okstate.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/092909aaa.html http://www.okstate.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/091409aaa.html http://www.okstate.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/060909aaa.html
Don't worry Yankees10, ignorance is no crime on wikipedia.
i have to agree with ObamaFan. you can't just ignore sources because its convenient to your argument, especially when the school is publishing articles about it.166.82.116.211 (talk) 22:09, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
His NFL.com profile lists Galveston, Colorado as his birthplace, but it looks like there is no such town. So? —bender235 (talk) 22:07, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
–Edit: It does not list Galveston, CO as his birthplace. It lists Galveston Co., Texas as his birthplace, which is correct. If you look closer, you can see that the "o" is lowercase. When this is done, it is referencing a county, not the state of Colorado. Anytime county is abbreviated, it will have an uppercase C and a lowercase o. He was born in the Houston, Sugar Land, Baytown area which is Galveston County.
Just an FYI for future reference.

most of this article has loaded language like "heartbreaking loss" etc. and doesn't mention Jeff Ireland's infamous question or the total number of times Bryant has been sued. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.228.251.112 (talk) 04:55, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
The change to read 'Desmond Demond "Dez" Bryant' has been made & reverted numerous times. We need some confirmation of his full name, preferably as a reference either in the article or here in the talk page. Gmporr (talk) 00:57, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

I feel that because Dez is such a high profile player, he shouldn’t be considered “former” until he officially announces his retirement especially since he has only been out of the league for a year. Bears247 (talk) 20:10, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

People are writing that he's on the Baltimore Ravens, when it's not official yet, and one guy just says "He's planning to sign with them" and then just edits it saying he's on the team. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BallBoy69 (talk • contribs) 21:58, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
this is another one of those topics that is somewhat of a grey area among how long we should wait before calling a player former. the general consensus up to this point has been that after 1 year of a player receiving no interest from an nfl team, that we can call them “former”. many nfl players never formally announce their retirement, but rather the game retires them. In Dez Bryant’s case, he has not played or worked out with a team in just over a year, so by these guidelines we would call him a former player. Bears247 (talk) 23:03, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
I suggest two years, but I do agree with the premise that no official retirement announcement is necessary. Sometimes players just ride off into the sunset, like Drew Stanton or Larry Fitzgerald. One and a half for halfway? If he doesn't get signed by July, August, you can change it to former :) MrSplashman77 (talk) 23:23, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
