1906–1917 Stanford rugby teams

 * ... that Stanford University played rugby instead of American football from 1906 to 1917 (1913 team pictured) and had as its first coach a man who had never before played or coached the sport?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg I must say that I'm loving LA84 as a resource right now. This is a great article that meets all DYK criteria.  Good work.  violet/riga [talk] 14:10, 29 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Request If possible, could we run this article on Friday November 18 in the 0400-1600 Los Angeles time slot? It looks like that's close to when it would come up in the queue anyway, but that would put the article on the eve of this year's playing of the Big Game, which is shown in the photo and referenced frequently in the article. Thanks! --Esprqii (talk) 16:49, 2 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I've moved this to the "Special occasion holding area" for November 18. To the promoter: This will need to go into Q4, the 16:00-00:00 UTC timeslot to capture the 08:00-16:00 LA time. Zangar (talk) 16:05, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
