Comment: Passes  with in-depth coverage in national and regional media sources.  Per : "College athletes and coaches are notable if they have been the subject of non-trivial media coverage beyond merely a repeating of their statistics, mentions in game summaries, or other WP:ROUTINE coverage."  The vast majority of college athletes do not pass this bar, but the coverage of Ottney is well past routine mentions in game coverage, etc.  Ottney easily passes the bar under the standards outlined both in  and . Coverage in this case includes: ESPN.com (national, 4 published stories about Ottney), Sports Illustrated (national), ''USA Today'' (2nd largest newspaper in US by circulation, multiple articles on Ottney), ''Los Angeles Times'' (4th largest newspaper in US by circulation), ''Chicago Tribune'' (10th largest newspaper in US by circulation), ''Detroit Free Press'' (23rd largest newspaper in US by circulation as shown http://www.boston.com/business/technology/articles/2011/11/01/circulation_numbers_for_the_25_largest_newspapers/ here), ''The Detroit News'',  and others.  This is not even to mention the far more extensive coverage in the local newspapers such as the ''Lansing State Journal'' and the ''Oakland Press
