 * Keep seems to pass WP:GNG to me based on sources provided.--Paul McDonald (talk) 04:34, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep What makes him relavent is winning 4 college football National championships (2 as a player and 2 as a coach). His brief time in the NFL is a bonus, but anyone with over 190 links to the page should be considered a relevant figure. Bigmike2346
 * Keep I've found enough WP:SIGCOV to meet WP:GNG: "Nick Perry thankful for another season at Alabama" from the Dothan Eagle/Alabama safety Nick Perry appreciates the opportunity for one more season from Tuscaloosa News; Alabama Safety Nick Perry Could Be Next Undrafted NFL Gem from BaltimoreRavens.com (not independent); Perry Will Do Drills Just Once from The Montgomery Advertiser (via Newspapers.com; Bears eye safeties -- including Alabama's Nick Perry -- in draft from The Chicago Tribune; and From Prattville to Power House: The Emergence of Nick Perry from The Odyessey Online. Also, a note to User:DGG, failing NGRIDIRON doesn't mean someone is non-notable, as they could still meet GNG. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:44, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Whether he passes WP:NGRIDIRON or not is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is whether he passes WP:GNG as all athletes, regardless of whether they pass a sports-specific notability guideline such as NGRIDIRON, have to have the significant coverage to pass GNG per WP:ATHLETE. And Perry has that significant coverage per the sources that User:BeanieFan11 has presented. Alvaldi (talk) 11:32, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep they appear to pass WP:GNG with the sources listed above. NemesisAT (talk) 07:11, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. The person is notable. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 17:56, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - however, something should be done about the title. We currently have Nick Perry (American football) which is a different person. Arguably, this should be at Nick Perry (coach) or even Nick Perry (American football coach) as either would more accurately describe why we have an article about this fellow. A good-faith nomination but the issues can be dealt with in other ways.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 10:58, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
