  • Keep Maze had over 1,000 receiving yards in his sophomore and junior years. He was a member of Alabama's 2009 national championship team. As a senior in 2011, he is on the watch list for the Biletnikoff Award, and he's the lead receiver, punt returner and kickoff returner for the 2011 Alabama team, the No. 2 college football team in the USA. He had over 250 all-purpose yards in the season opener last Saturday. More importantly, he has been the subject of significant, non-trivial coverage in the mainstream media. As one of the most prominent players on the No. 2 team in the country, the coverage is going to continue week by week as his accomplishments mount, but he's already had enough coverage to pass WP:GNG.

  • Delete Non-notable college athlete (as of now). Being a member of a notable team does not make a person notable. — X96lee15 (talk) 22:59, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
