Former collegiate and NFL quarterback, but fails
WP:NGRIDIRON notability guideline as he was cut from the San Francisco 49ers and didn't play in any games as a professional. The remaining claims are around a law degree and practice, but lack
WP:RS citations to establish notability. Article has been tagged for 9 years and seems to have been created by a SPA.

Keep. The article as it existed pre-AfD was in poor shape with some material that can likely be viewed as promotional. I have edited the article to render it more neutral and have also added some sourcing. That said,
WP:NGRIDIRON is an inclusionary standard rather than an exlusionary one. Football players can still qualify under
WP:GNG. Here, Terrizzi was a starting quarterback for a Power Five program and received GNG-level coverage. Examples include:
this,
this,
this, and
this.

Keep As expanded, the article provides the reliable and verifiable sources needed to meet the notability standard.

Keep. Meets
WP:GNG and
WP:BASIC, per Cbl62's sources. The article should probably be retitled to
Mike Terrizzi per
WP:COMMONNAME, as that appears to be the name he was known as during his football career.

Keep - I've looked over Cbl's four sources, and they all look like independent significant coverage. Most Power 5 conference full-time starting quarterbacks get GNG coverage, and this guy isn't an exception.

Keep generally big-ten starting quarterbacks generate enough press to surpass
WP:GNG. Board membership in several football organizations also speak to
WP:IMPACT. Mix that all together and it seems to me that several notability measures are met.--
