That the CFB Wikiproject has long since stumped for coaches at every level of college football to be notable is true, but their fervent advocacy doesn't overrule the GNG or WP:ATHLETE, nor does Division III football become the "highest level" of that sport because they think it ought to be.  The wording of the controlling criteria is: 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  coverage. Examples would include head coaches, well-known assistant coaches, or players who: 1. Have won a national award (such as those listed in :Template:College Football Awards or the equivalent in another sport), or established a major Division I (NCAA) record; 2. Were inducted into the hall of fame in their sport (for example, the College Football Hall of Fame); 3. Gained national media attention as an individual, not just as a player for a notable team.Pappas meets none of these criteria, nor does he meet the GNG.  Indeed, it would be quite astonishing for a single-season Div. III coach of a team with an undistinguished record to receive national media attention, and no evidence that he did has been proffered
