UT Cougars

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

British university American football team that does not appear to meet WP:GNG. Google shows up nothing unconnected to the team or its rivals. British university sports teams are not generally notable, and those that are tend to be in either Association football, rugby, cricket or rowing. This team does not appear to be an exception to this rule. Pfainuk talk 17:37, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Also worth note article is completely unreferenced. Given  the lack of independent and reliable sources on the team, I dont see any prospect of being able to reference it. Pit-yacker (talk) 17:42, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete no sources given, no article.--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:36, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - with a few obvious exceptions, British university sports teams are rarely notable and this one makes no specific notability claims. TerriersFan (talk) 20:33, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - Notable as a full, active member of BUAFL. Please see the extended discussion at Articles for deletion/Derby Braves. SteveStrummer (talk) 03:05, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * There seems little basis to assume that BUAFL members are inherently notable even in the absence of significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Please demonstrate that such coverage exists. Pfainuk talk 17:15, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
