Fails WP:NSPORT - hasn't played in a game or been on the active roster of a major professional league. The only thing notable about Beaver is being the recipient of the Gagliardi trophy, however, I don't believe this meets the criteria. The article is undersourced, relying on a few articles from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Online - there has been no coverage of Beaver since 2008.

 * Keep. The articles cited in the article (including the External links section) represent significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources, such that the subject passes WP:GNG. Moreover, the Gagliardi Trophy is a big deal; it's awarded annually to the best player in Division III football.  Division III players almost never pass GNG, but the Gagliardi winner (best out of thousands who play) is likely an exception. Cbl62 (talk) 15:52, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per and my recent clean-up/copyedit/add refs edit. There are plenty of sources to support WP:GNG.  « Gonzo fan2007  (talk)  @ 18:17, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meets WP:GNG and WP:BASIC per the sourcing and improvements made to the article. In addition, winning the Gagliardi Trophy (as national Player of the Year) could arguably be considered to meet WP:NCOLLATH #1, as well. Ejgreen77 (talk) 10:46, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - From going through the sources in the article, enough are here for a GNG pass. I'm not quite up to saying that the Gagliardi Trophy is an automatic NCOLLATH pass, but it's a big deal, and between the trophy and the significant coverage, Beaver is clearly notable.

 * Keep Meets GNG, plus the Gagliardi trophy is a major honor. Not may D3 players even get a workout with a pro team like the Packers. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 15:34, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:IMPACT. We normally keep articles on winners of national awards such as the Gagliardi Trophy, and I see no reason to make an exception here.--Paul McDonald (talk) 17:04, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
