Does not meet general WP:N requirements: no coverage in reliable sources. Nor does it meet the exception found in WP:ATHLETE: not a professional basketball player. 2008Olympian^chitchat 07:52, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Comment Although the subject does not meet the "professional athlete" standard of WP:Athlete, is there significant coverage by reliable third party sources for him to be notable under WP:N? Cheers, Dlohcierekim 14:04, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Delete - I wouldn't say "no coverage in reliable sources" per 1, 2, though the sources seem to be localized. Article does not assert notability, as mentioned does not meet WP:ATHLETE. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 00:56, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

• Keep - He was named a first-team all-Mountain West Conference player. That is plenty notable to me. Still, someone should add more information about his college career. GoCuse44 (talk) 19:20, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment - OK, well, I ended up adding a little more information about this player. He's definitely notable, but the paragraphs I put in about his college career could still use more beef to them. GoCuse44 (talk) 19:36, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
