General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy compliance:

• Adequate sourcing: - Ref 20 was not working but I found the article on Newspapers.com. Everything else should be fine, but I'm confused about Juday's 1,306 yards of total offense. Adding his passing yards (1173) and receiving yards (170) together, it should be 1343. Where did the remaining 37 yards come from; was it a typo or a hidden stat that's easy to miss?

  • I've made the fix consistent on both articles, so time to hit the hay! ミラP@Miraclepine 02:44, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
    • @Cbl62: Crap, I forgot I marked the roster as unsourced! Also, there's a cn tag. ミラP@Miraclepine 15:40, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

@Miraclepine: Roster citation added. Cbl62 (talk) 22:20, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

@Cbl62: What about the cn tag? ミラP@Miraclepine 23:56, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

@Miraclepine: Citations added. Cbl62 (talk) 12:03, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

Both sources check out, did a safe check for both articles, time to hit the hay! ミラP@Miraclepine 12:32, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

• Pulled due to concerns raised at WT:DYK#American football hooks in Prep. There are concerns that the promoted hook, specifically its mentions of "All-American" or specifically "first-team All-American", may not be sufficiently clear or understandable to non-American readers.
