Subject is not notable. WP:BEFORE only turns up trivial mentions in the context of sports, and basically nothing for business. Madeline ( part of me) 16:38, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

- Keep. Using my Newspapers.com account provided by The Wikipedia Library, I was able to find significant coverage of his college football career in Arizona Daily Star and Tucson Citizen, as well as from later in his career in the Philadelphia Inquirer. I'm not entirely sure if you need a subscription, but here are the links to "clippings" of the coverage: 1, 2, 3a, 3b. casualdejekyll 18:05, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - Was a quarterback in a team in the top level league in Canada, Canadian Football League, and so satisfies the criteria of having needed to appear in at least one top level league game. In his United States career he played for two teams that were in the United States Football League which is now disbanded, I am not sure if that was considered a top level league at its time or not, its not the NFL which I believe is the top level league in US Football. Regardless, they were top level in their Canadian career.-- PiccklePiclePikel ( talk) 18:06, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Played two full seasons at quarterback in high-level professional leagues (the CFL, the top level of canadian football, and the USFL, the second-highest level of american football at the time) and was a starting QB in college for a D-I-FBS program. Clearly passes GNG with the sources listed by casualdejekyll. Pretty much anybody who did any of the prior listed things will have SIGCOV. BeanieFan11 ( talk) 18:13, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- In light of casualdejekyll's sources I'd be willing to withdraw this nomination if nobody objects. Madeline ( part of me) 18:19, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
