The result was a weak keep. The references added by Ceyockey help, but it's still pretty thin.--Kubigula (talk) 05:30, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Does not seem to be notable. thisisace (talk) 21:42, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep David is pretty well known in the Collegiate Football circle's, better safe than sorry. DJ Creamity (talk) 22:02, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. When a kicker beats a record for the most field goals in a season, it usually reflects the fact his team gives him a lot of opportunities (i.e. inability to score touchdowns). Still, he does the job, and that makes him notable enough. --Blanchardb-Me^MyEars_MyMouth-timed 22:30, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep—Apparently an up-and-coming college kicker with at least one primary news article and additional incidental references (I have added one of each to the article). My feeling is that this person barely scrapes past the notability threshold as "one for the record books". If he is drafted to professional sports, I would feel better about the keep. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 00:16, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep — He's an up-and-coming player who will no doubt be the subject of several news reports in the future, and is a key part of one of the teams competing for this year's college football national championship. Imagine if this were an article about a character in a popular television show. It'd be notable then, and as college football is one of the consistently most popular things on American television today, and as LSU is one of the more prominent teams in college football, it only makes sense to have articles for their players. Precedence has been established in the past, and all this article needs is a little expansion. JKBrooks85 00:42, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
