I'll review this class project within the next few days. I do got a history degree and I'm familiar with race relations in sports, being the subject of my senior thesis. Welcome to Wikipedia all of you and I hope you decide to stay after this article is done, I'll be willing to help out any of you guys! Thanks Secret account 20:04, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
'm failing this article as the prose isn't GA quality and I got some problems with the sources.
There is too many problems for it to be near GA level. It needs a proper copyedit and I'm not entirely certain about the sourcing. Once these issues, especially concerning the referencing is fixed, I'll review the article again for GA status. Thanks Secret account 17:35, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
Nominator: Thank you for all the feedback Secret! I've made the changes you suggested and resubmitted the article for GA. Thanks again Jaironerao ( talk) 18:26, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Here are the issues I found:
I'll put the article on hold for a week, and will do a re-read to make sure there's no further issues at that time. Since the main author hasn't edited in a few months hopefully someone else can step in and make the fixes. Wizardman 15:17, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
Nominator: Jaironerao ( talk · Hi Wizardman, thank you for reviewing our article. I am the main author, but the article was actually written as part of a class project at Lafayette. I have been working on the changes you suggested. I’ve updated the references, but for #18 I'm not sure how to flesh it out. There is a paragraph on the home page of the website that talks about the song he wrote so I tried to add a quote from it into the reference. I wasn't sure how else to flesh it out more so let me know if you have any recommendations. We took the Sun Bowl logo from the wikipedia article for the SunBowl, but I have removed it since you thought it wasn’t Fair Use. I’ve also updated the rational a bit on the David Showell picture. I work at Lafayette college and was given permission to use that photo by the college archivist. I just wanted sure how to communicate all of that information into the photo page. For the David Showell section when we originally wrote the article the section was much longer, but since then someone else external to the college split out the David Showell section into it’s own article. That is why we left the subsection there. I’ll speak with the professor who I worked with on this article to see how he want to handle it. I also cleaned up the demonstration section so that it makes more sense. Jaironerao ( talk) 14:27, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
I'll do a re-read through tonight or tomorrow and see if there are any remaining issues; almost forgot about this. Wizardman 15:12, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
I'm still not entirely convinced Showell needs his own short section as is, but if you're sold on it then it's not a big deal to me, and I can let it stay in. Everything else checks out now, so I'll pass the article. Wizardman 14:06, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
