Nominator: Assistant coaches are normally not notable per Wikipedia Notability Essay. Article gives no sources and no other assertion of notability that I can see. Few pages link to the article, and it has been tagged since May 2008.--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:40, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy delete. Possibly no viable claims of notability per ((A7)); otherwise just delete as failing WP:BIO. - CobaltBlueTony™ _talk 16:46, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment As the nominator, I don't think it qualifies as a "speedy" and would be more comfortable with a discussion on the topic. Perhaps the article will be improved and it will be learned that the subject has acquired notability through other means (maybe becoming a head coach, or he played professionally... etc.)--Paul McDonald (talk) 17:19, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Did some more research, this is a two-year college school, which is outside the bounds of the Wikipedia College Football Project notability guidelines. Sure, he still could be notable for other things...--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:10, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. I don't think this one meets the Speedy criteria, as it seems ot assert notability - the coach worked with a current NFL defensive lineman, for example. It's thin, but it's an assertion. That said, I don't think the subject is notable enough for an article, though that would obviously change if he became a head coach for a notable team.
