Evidence has been provided here by User:Jweiss11 and others. Basically each of these accounts spreads a dubious award (CFPA) in college football player articles, or supports the spreading in discussions. While User:Eagles247 has already (unofficially) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3AWikiProject_College_football&action=historysubmit&diff=392091511&oldid=392090227 confirmed] they are sockpuppets, I am looking to make this official. bender235 (talk) 08:52, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

See Defending yourself against claims.

These accounts were also created for promotion purposes only, as it seems they are the founder of the College Football Performance Awards based on the evidence at the thread above. Eagles 24/7 (C) 19:34, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
