McSorley doesn't seem to satisfy WP:NCOLLATH -- see the guidelines provided for notability of college athletes:
"College athletes and coaches are notable if they have been the subject of non-trivial media coverage beyond merely a repeating of their statistics, mentions in game summaries, or other WP:ROUTINE coverage. Examples would include head coaches, well-known assistant coaches, or players who:
1. Have won a national award (such as those listed in Template:College Football Awards or the equivalent in another sport), or established a major Division I (NCAA) record.
2. Were inducted into the hall of fame in their sport (for example, the College Football Hall of Fame).
3. Gained national media attention as an individual, not just as a player for a notable team."
I'd especially note the sources used for McSorley (beyond routine coverage) are heavily dependent on media affiliated with his school. I'll put it forward for a deletion discussion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Csrwizard (talk • contribs) 20:31, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
