Talk:Joe Reilly (American football)

Merge Joseph Reilly into this page
I'm not 100% sure, but it appears to me that this article and the article Joseph Reilly are about the same person. Let's review the facts, based solely on what's in these articles:
 * Both were named Joseph Reilly, and nicknamed "Joe".
 * Both attended Boston College in 1899, and played football there.
 * Both became college football coaches after their playing career ended.
 * "Joseph" was the coach at Georgetown from 1904-1907, while "Joe" was a coach at Boston College in 1908.

Unfortunately, both articles are fairly minimal, especially this one, so there's no direct evidence, but it does seem like too much of a coincidence that this would be two separate people. If these articles are going to be merged, I think they should be merged here, since "Joe" was apparently the name he usually went by. Korny O&#39;Near (talk) 22:31, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
