This older FA promotion needs a little TLC to get back to the WP:FACR criteria. RidiculousUpside.com and SportsWar are blogs that are questionable if they meets the higher "high-quality RS" standard for FAs. The coverage for his 2019 and 2020 playing stints are too thin - we're given nothing about how he played in 2020, and it's not even clear how much he played in 2019. These spots need some expansion to give a clearer idea of what he did. Also unsure about the reliance on press releases/game summaries in the article. An example of a sourcing problem However, the Hokies easily won the game, 70–60 - source is a box score, and "easily" is an original research determination of the score. Not sure that it's warranted, as the ESPN recap for the game includes quotes such as I don't think we've had a great opener since I've been here from the coach, Wasn't giving Virginia Tech too solid a review of its season opener, etc. Large swaths of the article are sourced only to box scores, state sites, or non-independent releases from the team he played for. There should be more coverage not from teams he was playing for at the time for FA status. Hog Farm Talk 20:03, 7 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
