[edit] Dee Brown (Illini)

In my humble opinion, non-notable (a college basketball player). Ingoolemo ^talk 08:57, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep Even though I'm not a big college hoops fan, I've heard of him plenty of times, seen him on TV., etc. He's certainly notable. Google gets 293,000 results, and google news (subject to change) gets 1870 results. That's certainly notable. --Bachrach44 15:08, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep A Google search for "Dee Brown" Illini gets 69,000 hits see [1]His Illini page shows he was an All-American and college player of the year see [2]. He gets 1,320 Google News hits see [3] and will be drafted to the NBA when his college career finishes barring serious injury. Capitalistroadster 16:32, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and expand; he was quite a big name last year and is on course to be just as big this year. (P.S. Go Illini!) —HorsePunchKid→龜 2005-12-01 20:56:29Z
• Keep LOL some kind of record breaker, even at college level, is notable as he is a prodigy and is highly likely to be very notable later on. Probable olympian. Zordrac 00:19, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - per above reasons - seems to be somewhat notable (if Google hits are yer thing) Barneyboo (Talk) 00:21, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as per everyone else. Sumahoy 00:25, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep one of the most recognizable college athletes. 18:58, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. If he had not broken his foot in June, he would be in the NBA already. -- DS1953 00:09, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I don't think all college athletes should qualify, but those who win major awards should. -Colin Kimbrell 22:02, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
