Weak keep He seems to meet the notability threshold, although the article needs clean up. Are you arguing that only professional football players can have entries? What about record breaking or otherwise notable college players or notable high school athletes? ChildofMidnight (talk) 18:13, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. 74 receptions in a IAA career might rank him in the top 15,000 all time...hardly record breaking...he wasn't even the leading receiver on his team--Smashvilletalk04:21, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The article appears to be sourced quite well now, and plenty more sources are available from a simple Google search. Note that WP:ATHLETE is a guideline. Verifiability is the policy, which this appears to meet quite handily. BradV00:15, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Quite blatantly fails WP:ATHLETE. He was a #2-3 receiver on a IAA football team. WP:V is irrelevant. He was a football player, the only thing he could be notable for is being a football player...and he is not a notable football player. --Smashvilletalk04:18, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
