Willie Edwards (football player)[edit]

unnotable college football player brew crewer (yada, yada) 03:50, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ I don't see anything here that sets him apart from any of the thousands and thousands of persons who have played college football over the last 130+ years, although he may rate a mention in an article about WVU's 1988 season. Mandsford (talk) 04:00, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep He was the starting corner for one of WVU's greatest teams, only their second undefeated team. If anyone was to research the team, they would need to be able to get some info on the starters, which Edwards was. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Red Deadeye (talk • contribs) 04:02, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So do an article about the '88 Mountaineers team, and feature Willie Edwards prominently in that article. Making an article on that, you're more likely to turn this into a redirect. Mandsford (talk) 13:34, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If you didn't already notice, there is an article. John (talk) 20:48, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Can't say that I cared enough to notice... Merge to that article, then Mandsford (talk) 22:00, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete With regret. No postseason awards of All-American status. No pro career. Even as a fellow alum of both WVU and MHS I must say delete. DarkAudit (talk) 02:25, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I live for WVU football, and I've never heard of the guy. I do agree with Mandsford when he said to just make an article for the '88 Mountaineers team. --Cra sh U nderride 15:23, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
