message: The last part of the first paragraph is inaccurate, McNair was traded after the draft and Drew Brees signing with the Saints is irrelevant since Young was never a likely choice for them.  I did not want to just remove that part since it has been that way almost a year and I have no prior edits. Manic000 16:01, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm not doubting that VY has had a child, but is this website, MediaTakeOut.com, a reliable source? I did a Google News search and this website was the only one that mentioned the baby. Nothing from a Houston paper (VY's hometown) or an Austin paper or a Tennessee paper. With all the issues surrounding WP:BLPs lately, I think we should err on the side of caution and remove this claim until a better, verifiable source can be found. If anybody disagrees, then revert my change and let me know what you think.↔NMajdan•talk 17:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: It is fine to mention it in the article.  However, if you add the box cover to the article, it can't be the top image in the infobox.  That needs to be a free picture. Johntex\talk 17:38, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

message: The message on top is starting to get annoying. Has there been a consensus yet whether to merge his highlights or not? I think a separate article is appropriate for the sake of making this article smaller in size. BlueAg09 (Talk) 03:52, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Went ahead and removed the merge template. Moved article to Vince Young career highlights due to a naming convention problem. BlueAg09 (Talk) 08:11, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

text: * There is a template at the top of the new article to discuss a merge back into this one.  Has anyone comment on this? Juan Miguel Fangio| ►Chat  15:07, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

text: *I think most of it needs to be deleted and very few should be merged back.   Most of his college achievements are UT records he set, and I dont think they're worth mentioning and is trivial information.    The awards are already covered in here, so that should be good.   I think the question should be, are there "significant coverage from independent sources" about Vince's career accomplishments?  Corpx 15:55, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

text: *I would be against losing the information because the records are important.  They are easily verified through record books, newspaper reports, etc.  I have no strong opinion at this point whether it is better to have them in this article or a separate article.  I'm happy either way as long as we retain the information here. Johntex\talk 18:37, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Madden 08.jpg

message: The article says "where he would reunite with his close friend and mentor Steve McNair," but there's been no prior mention of McNair or how this relationship formed.
According to this news story, Young attended McNair's football camps.  After McNair's murder, Young expressed his determination to be a "big brother" to McNair's two young sons.
I'm undecided about whether this is worth including in the article.  I'm just mentioning it here so people more knowledgeable about Young can evaluate it. Goodguy2 (talk) 11:42, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: McNair was not "traded" by the Titans to the Baltimore Ravens as stated in the article.  He was released by the Titans because his continued presence on the team would have triggered a $50,000,000 roster bonus that the Titans had never intended to pay and only allowed to remain in his final contract with them under the assumption that it would either trigger either a renegotiation or his release.  When the latter occurred, McNair became a free agent and subsequently signed with the Ravens, so there was never a trade.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1004:B10A:D703:407C:BC89:7FC:D940 (talk) 01:40, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

message: Someone added a paragraph to the "Radio" (film) article stating that Vince Young's nickname is Radio. States Mr. Young is "borderline legally retarded". Whatever that means. Just thought I would add it here so Vince Young fans and supporters could keep an eye on the Radio wiki. I am not 100 percent sure but I am guessing this is BS.

message: Please add the following to the last sentence in the "Financial Problems" subsection of the "Personal Life" section. The sentence currently reads:
In January, 2014, Young filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in a Houston federal bankruptcy court.[71]
This sentence in isolation is misleading and historically inaccurate. The sentence should be qualified by adding the following:
On January 30th, Young petitioned the court to dismiss the bankruptcy filing due to a settlement with Adams and Peoples, and a resulting settlement with Pro Player Funding.
