  • Delete neither the coverage of him as a player or as a coach rises to the level of notability and passes GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:56, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I tried to find notability guidelines for radio broadcasters/sports broadcasters, but found no guidance. There are 7 listed "Boston College Eagles football broadcasters", although each one has more on his resume than Andy Powers. I did find that he has done color commentary for BC hockey for several years now, so I think it might be appropriate to rewrite the article to focus on that rather than delete.

  • Delete: Indeed, there are no notability guidelines covering sports broadcasters, which would mean that they'd stand and fall on the GNG. The subject doesn't meet it, and our standard practice is certainly not to keep an article just because there aren't any SNGs bearing on the subject. Ravenswing 22:29, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
