Fails guidelines for WP:NCOLLATH notability. Hell in a Bucket ( talk) 01:00, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
- He's got notability in his college career - he went through an entire season in the Big 12 without giving up a sack.
- Please see WP:NCOLLATH. Hell in a Bucket ( talk) 01:42, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
- Yeah, he gained national media attention as a top prospect for next year's draft.

- That was actually the reason I nominated for AFD and not csd, a projected draft is not a final thing. I could be wrong but I'm not seeing the other parts needed. We can let others weigh in and if I'm wrong I'm ok with that :) Hell in a Bucket ( talk) 02:01, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. The nomination overlooks WP:GNG. It is well established the WP:NCOLLATH is not an exclusive standard; indeed, the intro to the guideline explicitly states: "Failing to meet the criteria in this guideline means that notability will need to be established in other ways (e.g. the general notability guideline ..." Here, Niang is a truly rare case -- a college level offensive lineman who has received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources and thus passes the GNG bar. Offensive linemen almost never get press at college level. E.g., [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. Cbl62 ( talk) 19:30, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
