✓Delete Ordinary footballer. Doesn't meet general
WP:GNG due to lack of general independent coverage & sources. DAVRONOVA.A.✉⚑ 10:28, 31 October 2019 (UTC) As per
Cbl62 opinion below I have changed mine so please do not count this as viable one. DAVRONOVA.A.✉⚑21:10, 1 November 2019 (UTC)reply
Lean to keep. I'm a bit on the fence, initially leaning to "delete", but tipped the other way after seeing the extent of significant coverage. The nom overlooks long established precedent that college football players can qualify under
WP:GNG. Chugunov has been a quarterback at two
Power Five programs. He was the stating QB at West Virginia for part of the
2017 season, then became a graduate transfer to Ohio State where he is currently the backup QB behind
Justin Fields. He has so far appeared in 7 of 8 games for the undefeated No. 3 Buckeyes, completing 12 of 16 passes for an impressive 195.2 QB rating. He has also received significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources and thus passes the GNG bar. Examples of the significant coverage include (1)
this from The Columbus Dispatch, (2)
this from
NJ.com, (3)
this from The Toledo Blade, (4)
this from The Cleveland Plain Dealer, (5)
this from the Courier News, and (6)
this from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Keep coverage appears to pass
WP:GNG and college quarterbacks (even sometimes primary backup quarterbacks like this one) generate enough press to generate press--especially those like this one who do have starts and five years of play in their history.--
