Article about former semi-pro footballer which comprehensively fails WP:GNG. BLPPROD was contested by adding a single piece of non-independent, primary coverage that contributes nothing to SIGCOV. The sources available online are almost entirely from his college, its conference or his clubs - none of which are independent of the subject. The secondary coverage is entirely routine/trivial stuff like match reports and a Baltimore Sun piece that barely touches on him. He's been named to conference teams of the week by Collegesoccernews.com but its trivial coverage. Jogurney (talk) 18:17, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - PDL players are generally not going to have the in-depth coverage required to meet GNG, and this is no exception. Sounder Bruce 08:25, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
