This is a bio for an American football player who made it to a tryout but did not make the cut to the regular season team. Fails WP:NGRIDIRON and his college career does not meet WP:NCOLLATH. Whpq (talk) 02:48, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not finding the type of significant coverage required by WP:GNG. Some semi-significant coverage in the Lafayette Daily Advertiser, but even there it's not particularly in depth. Cbl62 (talk) 03:50, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Makes it past tryout and signs to team, there are several wiki articles with players who have done the same see "John Marshall" see "Jordan Holland"etc etc even "Nate Landman" a player in college that fails to meet any standards ZeekAnonymous

Making it past tryout and signing a contract with a pro team is not enough to meet the WP:NGRIDIRON standard. Accordingly, GNG controls. If you can provide sources in which he has received significant coverage, I'd be willing to reconsider my "delete" vote. Cbl62 (talk) 05:22, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:NGRIDIRON and WP:GNG. The only real coverage he has received is local to his college, which is fairly routine for any starter of a collegiate team, and even then it's not even particularly in-depth. Best, GPL93 (talk) 13:20, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
