The article doesn't show why the person 'Basketball coach' is notable on Wikipedia. Max Viwe | Wanna chat with me? 08:10, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

• Delete as failing WP:BIO. Coaching a women's basketball team is not a particularly remarkable achievement. Claritas § 08:28, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

• Keep The article is about him becoming the Athletic Director as well, which is a notable achievement for a division 1 school. Also he is a fairly successful Women's basketball coach since he has had several national appearances. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ThomasHorn7 (talk • contribs) 11:43, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Comment Sorry, ThomasHorn, you only get one !vote; you voted "keep" above already. --MelanieN (talk) 15:18, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

• Weak delete The article needed help - I added references and categories. I found a few news reports about his appointment as interim athletic director and about his team's championship. Maybe if he gets confirmed as athletic director (instead of "interim") he would qualify as notable. But for now his coverage is minimal, considering how much reporting there usually is on anything related to sports. --MelanieN (talk) 15:15, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
