  - Full review needed now that QPQ has been submitted. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:54, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Long enough, new enough. Earwig's down, so AGFing, and QPQ done. The source says "Jarrett played seven games in an Ellsworth jersey before an injury shifted him to the bench." and Ellsworth is a college - am I missing something?--Laun chba ller 21:38, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Turns out I am missing something, a ping to @BeanieFan11:.--Laun chba ller 19:40, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Launchballer: I'm guessing you're referring to the part that reads having no offers to play college football? I think you're right – I had initially wrote that after reading Two words stand out on Jarrett’s recruiting profile: No interest. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound high schooler held no Division I offers, no Division II offers, no Division III offers – but I forgot that community colleges (like Ellsworth) can also offer athletic scholarships (meant by 'offers'). Maybe it could be changed to having no offers to play NCAA college football? Or something else? BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:21, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fine by me, but you can't have adjacent links per WP:SEAOFBLUE.--Laun chba ller 23:27, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BeanieFan11: just putting this nomination back on your radar :) theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 05:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Launchballer: Oops, forgot about this. What about, as ALTs, since saying "NCAA college football" doesn't sound like it'd work:

ALT1 ... that football quarterback Peewee Jarrett went from having a two-year span with no playing time and being "set on quitting football" to signing into the National Football League?

ALT2 ... that football player Peewee Jarrett went from having a two-year span with no playing time and being "set on quitting football" to signing into the National Football League?

Thoughts? BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:56, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd lose "football quarterback"/"football player" per WP:DYKTRIM, but otherwise that's basically a trimmed ALT0 and that otherwise checked out, so let's roll. (Now get back to work on Georgi Romanov.)--Laun chba ller 08:40, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
