fails WP:GNG, most hits are about clients and work, not about the person. And the article is also most about the company, not about him. The Banner talk 15:17, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete Agents can be notable, if they are along the lines of Scott Boras. That Genske was the agent to numerous high profile players does not make him notable. All coverage is in passing, and not in significant depth as required by WP:GNG. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:53, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep I Think the Sports Business Daily profile pushes him over the threshold but it's by a slim margin. Article certainly needs better sourcing as the client list is entirely unsourced. Perhaps rename the article to focus more on the Agency itself. Spanneraol (talk) 19:44, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
 * I was gonna say that Sports Business Daily profile is really about the agency, and not about the agent. An article on the agency might be notable, but the agents seems not to be. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:04, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

I carefully saved this article to the Baseball Wiki. BTW, that's NOT spam, it's just an information that i use to save articles to Wikia projects before they probably cease to exist--Saviour1981 (talk) 23:27, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, in my opinion you are spamming that wikia thingy with that link. The Banner talk 23:47, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
 * One more time the accusation of spam and the AIAV will await of you --Saviour1981 (talk) 00:04, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
 * LOL, no serious arguments left so you start making threats. The Banner  talk 00:07, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
 * This is not funny :-( --Saviour1981 (talk) 00:10, 21 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep - conditional. The current  article is nothing  but  spam  for  The Legacy Agency. Remove the The Legacy Agency section those  irrelevant  lists of clients and then see what's left. If  reliable, in depth, 3rd party  sources can be found to  assert notability  per WP:BIO, then keep, but  otherwise delete without  prejudice to  creating  a stand alone article for The Legacy Agency if it can pass WP:GNG  and WP:Org.

 * Keep - though I agree with Kudpung on the current status of the article, I disagree with The Banner on GNG - via HighBeam Research, I found several articles that seem to go beyond "trivial mentions" and thus would satisfy GNG, as well as one regarding him as a trial lawyer prior to sports – – while admittedly those articles do not directly pertain to him, rather to his advocacy for his clients, outside of a feature article on him, nothing is going to directly pertain to him. As such, I support keeping the article, albeit a rather weak support.  Go   Phightins  !  20:38, 24 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator. Poorly sourced which makes this person not notable. Ashbeckjonathan (talk) 17:09, 25 December 2013 (UTC)
 * WP:MUST. The fact that the article is poorly sourced is not by itself reason to delete anything. Spanneraol (talk) 17:18, 25 December 2013 (UTC)
