Blatant WP:ADMASQ for a non-notable former college football player's asset-based lending, botox and supplement businesses. Behold the sourcing:

• Stats pages (WP:PRIMARYSOURCE): [1], [2], [3].
• Profiles/bios from his schools' websites or student pubs (WP:RSSM): [4], [5], [6], [7], [8].
• His own companies' websites: [9], [10], [11].
• Sponsored/paid-for profiles: [12], [13].
• Primary source Q&A WP:INTERVIEWS (and most of these have the stink of paid-for content: [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19].
• A WP:TRIVIALMENTION: [20].
• ... and his LinkedIn page

We have basically one piece of independent WP:SIGCOV, about his decision to end his football career after six seasons of eligibility, and that's nowhere close to a WP:GNG pass. I've left all the spam in here for now so AfD participants can see what this page was intended for. Dclemens1971 (talk) 02:47, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, but maybe cut most of the promo content. He's notable as a football player, see SIGCOV from e.g. Arizona Republic (2 3 4 5), Chicago Tribune, AP, and Big Ten Freshman of the Year probably passes WP:NCOLLATH as well. BeanieFan11 (talk) 03:08, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - clearly meets GNG. Although many sources in the article are garbage, there are plenty of sources available to meet GNG. The article needs a lot of cleanup but AfD is not for cleanup. Rlendog (talk) 14:47, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
