Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wade Koehl
The article is in pretty poor shape as it stands, and it needs to be improved.  But it looks like Koehl has had enough non-trivial coverage in mainstream media sources to pass . Some of it is coverage in his hometown newspaper from Midland, Texas, but there are also two feature stories and a lengthy interview in the ''Houston Chronicle'' (12th List of newspapers in the United States by circulation|largest circulation newspaper in the US), an in-depth feature story from BP Sports, and a CBS Sports story about his being listed on the Butkus Award list.  The "need for speed" feature story also has some depth. These article do not constitute routine coverage.  Examples of the coverage include: '''(1)''' http://www.chron.com/CDA/archives/archive.mpl/2006_4226394/koehl-s-a-big-hit-off-the-field-too-uh-linebacker.html Koehl's a big hit off the field, too: UH linebacker makes tackles on Saturday, grades every other day, Houston Chronicle, Nov. 2006; '''(2)''' http://www.chron.com/CDA/archives/archive.mpl/2007_4448474/ncaa-football-koehl-covets-roster-spot-on-new-pro.html Koehl covets roster spot on new pro club: Team Texas has tryouts for spring football league, Houston Chronicle, October 2007; '''(3)''' http://www.bpsports.net/bpsports.asp?ID=5575 Koehl: Created to play football, BP Sports, May 2007; '''(4)''' http://www.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/stories/082004aat.html Koehl Selected To Butkus Award List, CBS Sports, Aug. 2004; '''(5)''' http://blog.chron.com/cougars/2007/03/post-pro-day-with-wade-koehl/ Post-Pro Day with ...
