GA Review[edit]

Here's a review. Thanks

I feel that the 75th anniversary team should be mentioned in the lead, as it's his most notable accomplishment.
Anything about his college career? Any special honors like All-Conference, Hall of Honor, game stats? He was drafted as a tight end so there could be some extra sources.
Why did he get a starting position, being a 13th round pick to 75th anniversary is a notable achievement.
Any notable NFL or even team achievements? Why he wasn't elected to any Pro Bowls, so fourth.
Any coaches, football writers or fellow players evaluation of Key? They had anything to say about him. How was his offensive statistics?
Ditto with high school? Anything notable did he achieve?

This article is kinda short for a GA though I understand it's an offensive lineman who played in a time which not all sourcing is online. There's plenty of potential free sources about Key out there, mostly though your local library or if you go to college, their local archives. [1] is one source I found that discusses Key in more detail, and it's not only stats or injuries. On hold for now.

Thanks

I've added the 75th anniversary team to the lead, his induction into Hall of Honor for Texas State, and some high school information. It does not appear that he earned All-Conference, and I cannot find any game stats. I'll see what I can find for the remaining points. Eagles 24/7 (C) 21:10, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
