Notability concerns. Doesn't meet WP:NGRIDIRON. Only non-trivial coverage is on University of Wisconsin football fan blogs, such as [1]. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:02, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete never made the cut for a professional team. Doesn't meet WP:GNG. Royalbroil 00:37, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as never played professionally. Balle010 (talk) 02:51, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete it's pretty rare for an NCAA offensive linemen to generate enough press to pass WP:GNG, but it does happen. This does not seem to be the case here.--Paul McDonald (talk) 12:54, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. There is some coverage out there. See here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. Ejgreen77 (talk) 10:57, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hmmm some of those look promising. I'll re-evaluate, until then consider me Neutral. Nice research.--Paul McDonald (talk) 19:02, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, - Never played professional. Alex-h (talk) 14:19, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete – while Ejgreen77's sources are good, I don't believe the subject meets WP:COLLATH. He has not won a national award (only personal award listed on the article is "Offensive Scout Team Player of the Year" at UW. He's not a hall-of-famer, nor has he won multiple NCAA D1 individual nat'l championships, nor is he a head coach. Point 3 is the only one that gives me pause, but given that all seven sources Ejgreen77 linked are either from Madison (where UW is located) or Oshkosh (only about 80 miles away), I would say that this is not "national media attention".

• I haven't been enthusiastic enough to enter any of the additional details into the article, and neither has anyone else. Perhaps we might go with try another wiki (and I suppose a dash of ignore all rules just in case). I think removing the article atthis time will be better for Wikipedia.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:49, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
