 * Keep. Player doesn't meet NGRIDIRON but he does meet GNG per the points made below so this is a changed vote from delete to keep. I assume his college football career has no bearing for notability purposes unless he meets GNG? This player doesn't appear to meet GNG. Happy to change my vote if suitable sources can be presented.

 * , no, one's college football career can indeed be what establishes an individual's notability. Jweiss11 (talk) 01:03, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you, . Having read the points made below, I think we can go with GNG on this one so I've altered my vote. No Great Shaker (talk) 12:10, 20 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete Fails NGRIDIRON, no regular season games played in the CFL or NFL.-- Rockchalk 717 22:50, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
 * WP:NGRIDIRON is an inclusive standard, not an exclusive one. College football players who have never played professional football are notable if they pass WP:GNG. As outlined below, Rogers hits that mark. Cbl62 (talk) 15:23, 20 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep subject is notable based on extensive coverage in multiple, independent sources. It's also safe to assume that any starting quarterback for a NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision team will pass GNG. You will find the sources if you look for them.

 * It's also safe to assume that any starting quarterback for a NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision team will pass GNG. I have doubts as to whether that's true, and even if it were true that it would be desirable to have that kind of coverage. For most of them, we could never write more than the kind of article you see here--a stub covering no more than eight years of their life (college and high school career), with nothing to say about what happened next. That would be better covered in a season article. Mackensen (talk) 01:45, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Mackensen, yes, it's true, certainly for someone who started at QB for at least a full season like Rogers. Even if the notable pursuits of an individual are confined to a few years, they can still be notable. This article and it analogs could be expanded into a well-developed articles.

 * Keep. He was a starting quarterback for a Division I FBS program and ranked among the top 10 quarterbacks nationally in passing yardage in 2017. Not surprisingly, he received SIGCOV in multiple, reliable, and independent sources and thus passes WP:GNG. Examples of the SIGCOV include:, , , , , , , , , , .

 * To further demonstrate notability, and out of thousands and thousands who have played football at New Mexico State, he ranks second (behind Chase Holbrook) all time in passing yards, total offense, and touchdowns. This is not a run of the mill player. Cbl62 (talk) 15:18, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
