*Comment: Since it is WP:CRYSTAL which mean too early to tell then when the subject is notable then article can be recreated.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:80%;color:#FA0"> CASSIOPEIA</b>(<b style="#0000FF">talk</b>) 12:10, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Baun is currently one of the top college pass-rushing outside linebackers and is graded as a late first round draft pick. That may be crystal balling it a bit so I'm not opposed to Draftifying. Best, GPL93 (talk) 11:56, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
 * I said it might be CRYSTAL, that's the worst-case scenario but I do think Baun gets just past GNG. Also in all likelihood it's not really a matter of if Baun becomes notable but when he meets WP:NGRIDIRON'S requirements, as it is unlikely Baun won't be selected in the NFL draft. He could also pass WP:NCOLLATH before that as he has been named a midseason first team All-American by Sporting News and the AP and is a semifinalist for the Bednarik Award. He's had Profiles written about him by the Associated Press, and The Athletic and has received what I'd consider above-normal coverage as a college football player, more localized (but still from major media outlets) in-depth coverage includes The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and the Wisconsin State Journal (1 2). To clarify my statement above, I'll draftify the article if other editors concur he doesn't pass WP:GNG in order to preserve the content until the NFL Draft rolls around.

 * Keep meets WP:GNG with significant coverage in The Athletic and Associated Press, both extremely reputable sources, in addition to coverage around awards (multiple 247Sports profiles) and even some passing coverage on his NFL Draft prospects, which he looks to be a near-lock to be drafted.
