This player seems to fall short of WP:Athlete because this person does not seem to have played proffessional football. Andy4226uk (talk) 02:25, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep needs sourcing, for sure. His extensive collegiate career would have no doubt generated enough press to more than qualify for WP:GNG even though he may not have met the guidelines of WP:ATHLETE.--Paul McDonald (talk) 04:01, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep WP:BEFORE would have revealed multiple sources justifying inclusion. I think the multiple hall of fame inductions and all-time listings are an indication of his status in American football, regardless of his professional status.--TM 06:05, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the input guys. Living in the UK I didn't realise that college football HOF awards were such a notable achievement. I'll certainly be less trigger happy in the future! Andy4226uk (talk) 12:05, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep. Janakievski has been the subject of extensive non-trivial coverage in the mainstream media.  I've added several such sources to the article, and there are plenty of others as well. Cbl62 (talk) 19:03, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
