I'd add to this: "True freshman Pooka Williams is Pro Football Focus' highest-graded running back in the nation through three weeks...:"
Kansas City Star and "Yet finally, when a running back named “Pooka” who was in the fourth grade when the streak began in 2009 rushes for 125 yards and 8.9 per carry, well . . ." printed up in the
Washington Post and "A week after not playing in a home loss to FCS Nicholls, touted Jayhawks freshman running back Pooka Williams rushed for 125 yards and two touchdowns on just 14 carries against Central Michigan." at
Yahoo Sports and was also picked up by the
Los Angeles Times. Exactly how does this not pass

Only one of those stories is significant coverage in a non-routine article (the Columbia Daily Tribune.) Many college players will get written about in routine game recaps, but that does not convey notability per
WP:ROUTINE (participation in a routine event) - that's why
WP:NCOLLATH/
WP:NGRIDIRON exists at all instead of just
WP:GNG.
