    Pass/Fail:

Lead

[edit]

Early years

[edit]
  • No issues.

College career

[edit]

2011–2013

[edit]
  • Almost every sentence here starts with "He". Perhaps you could try combining some sentences or using his surname to make it less repetitive.
  • The 2012 paragraph is only one sentence. Either expand it (maybe highlights from one or two games) or merge it with the 2011 season paragraph.

2014

[edit]
  • He moved to center for the 2014 season." Any reason why?
  • "He then returned, and started, in the team's GoDaddy Bowl" Change to "He then returned as a starter in the team's GoDaddy Bowl"

Professional career

[edit]
  • No issues.

Personal life

[edit]

References

[edit]
  • Some of the references are to websites where it would be better to use the publication title rather than their .com address (e.g. si.com can be Sports Illustrated, foxsports.com can be Fox Sports, etc.). I won't let this prevent the article from GA status but it's something to keep in mind for the future.
    • As this is the only remaining thing, I'll pass this nomination. There is no official guideline to my knowledge, but if you think most of them can be changed, I'd go ahead and change them. When a reader is looking for the publisher, Sports Illustrated grabs their attention much faster than "si.com" would. Again, this isn't something that prevents promotion to GA status, but I think the refs would look better that way. Congratulations! --Bcschneider53 (talk) 19:12, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
