Non-notable former college American football player. He has not played in the NFL and did not do anything notable as a college football player. Natg 19 (talk) 01:04, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

- Keep I don't know how you can say he is "non notable". He was UCLA's starting QB for multiple years. As the starting QB of a big school like that I'm sure enough coverage to pass WP:GNG can be found.--Yankees10 01:12, 19 November 2014 (UTC)]
- Comment I understand that, however, he was the starting QB during UCLA's down years and when they did not receive much coverage. If you or anyone else finds significant coverage of him, I will be happy to withdraw my nomination. From a quick Google search of him, I only found one article from the LA Times mentioning him.

- Prince received extensive coverage in L.A. during his tenure at UCLA. Searching is complicated because we also have lots of hits for Kevin-Prince Boateng, but examples from the L.A. Times include [1][2][3][4]. I think the case would be stronger if someone could identify some non-routine coverage from a national source (or at least a source outside L.A.); I suspect such coverage did exist but my initial search didn't come up with something clear-cut and on-line. --Arxiloxos (talk) 01:57, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
- You're right, it wasn't as easy as I expected. But I did find [5] [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] I believe that is enough to pass GNG.--Yankees10 02:00, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
