 Working Will complete this review in the next couple of days. –Grondemar 13:45, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
One initial comment—I haven't finished going through the article yet:

Were there any star ratings or other recruiting details that could be listed similar to other recruit articles?  Being a walk-on with only D-II offers, I understand he might not have been graded by the services. –Grondemar 13:38, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
School team bios would include them and he is not listed at Scout.com or Rivals.com.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  17:33, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
More comments:

Under college career, the text jumps straight from Kovacs having a second knee surgery to being one of the most highly-regarded walk-ons in the country.  I'd suggest adding something about the surgery being successful (I assume it was) and how he earned playing time in the offseason to fill the gap.
I noted that the surgery was successful, but do not understand the point about filling the gap.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  05:50, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
"That season he played free safety before being switched to strong safety." It would be better to indicate earlier that he made his first start as a free safety, and then indicate in which game he transitioned to strong safety.
I don't know which game(s) he played free safety.  I have added all the detail I could find.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  08:11, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
It would be nice to have a picture of the subject, although of course that is not required for GA status.
In time, I will track one down.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR)  05:45, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
